EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Mona, Daughter of Mrs. R. William Merritt Chase" captures the essence of a young woman in the late 19th century. Painted by renowned American artist William Merritt Chase around 1894, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 81.3x62.2 cm and is held in a private collection. The subject of the painting is Lydia Spencer Moncure Robinson, affectionately known as Mona, who was the daughter of a prominent railroad magnate. With her head turned towards the viewer and a direct gaze that exudes confidence and poise, Mona's brown hair cascades elegantly down her back. Chase skillfully employs impressionistic techniques to create an intimate portrait that showcases his mastery of light and color. The rich hues and delicate brushstrokes bring depth to Mona's attire - an exquisite evening dress adorned with intricate patterns. Adding further visual interest are two ripe peaches resting on a black surface beside her; their vibrant colors contrasting beautifully against the dark background. This artwork not only exemplifies Chase's talent as an American impressionist but also serves as a testament to his ability to capture both physical likeness and inner temperament through portraiture. With its close-up composition and meticulous attention to detail, this stunning print invites viewers into Mona's world - one filled with elegance, grace, and timeless beauty.
