Mrs. Mary Arthur Thomas Eakins American 1900 This bust-length portrait depicts the seventy-six-year-old mother of Eakinss artist-friend Robert Arthur. As a representation of an elderly model absorbed in an old-fashioned task, the work recalls Eakinss The Writing Master, a portrait of his father, hanging nearby. Here, as in the earlier painting, the artist used strong contrasts of light and dark to define forms and highlight the hands and face, suggesting both manual dexterity and the wisdom of age. Its austere palette and quiet eloquence also reveal Eakinss study of works by the seventeenth-century masters Rembrandt, Ribera, and Velázquez.DETALLE DEL RETRATO DE AMALIA GUTIERREZ SOLANA VIUDA DE PEREZ MINGUEZ - 1924 - OLEO/LIENZO - 81 x 66 cm.
