General Description
This small-scale scene of an ethereal female figure in a nebulous interior showcases the signature style of Thomas Wilmer Dewing, whose wispy women were popular with late 19th-century American collectors.
Dewing was one of the founding members of the Ten American Painters, a group of artists who broke away from the National Academy of Design to form their own, non-juried shows.
