About the Item
This is a portrait of Felisa Rincón de Gautier (Doña Fela) whose terms in office as Mayor of San Juan lasted from 1947-1969. The painting captures Doña Fela's iconic gestures: her ever present fans, in this case white with red floral embellishments, her Spanish coif, and a mahogany wicker chair. In the painting Dona Fela wears a violet dress, a symbol of mourning. The piece is signed on the bottom left by the artist.
