EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs. Holley of Cos Cob, 1912 (oil on cigar box lid) captures a moment of quiet contemplation in the early twentieth century. Painted by Frederick Childe Hassam, this intimate oil painting measures 14x20.5 cm and is part of a private collection. In this impressionistic artwork, Mrs. Holley sits alone in her sitting room, surrounded by soft furnishings and draped curtains that allow natural light to gently illuminate the space. Her three-quarter length portrait showcases her elegant hair style and attire, reflecting the fashion of the time. With a book in hand, Mrs. Holley appears lost in thought as she contemplates something unseen beyond our view. The artist's use of lighting creates an ethereal atmosphere that adds to the overall impressionist aesthetic. The choice to paint on a cigar box lid adds an interesting twist to this piece, showcasing Hassam's creativity and resourcefulness as an artist. This American impressionist work invites viewers into Mrs. Holley's world—a serene sanctuary where she can quietly reflect and wait for whatever lies ahead. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this delicate artwork from Fine Art Finder, allowing us to appreciate its intricate details and immerse ourselves in its tranquil ambiance.
