Note:
The sitter depicted reminds the viewer of Isabella Wolff, one of Lawrence's subjects and close "intimate" friends. A portrait of Wolff, painted by Lawrence over a twelve year period, is in the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago (Ref. 1922.4461) The present lot shows a similar treatment of the fabric and a diaphanous quality to the drapery, reminiscent of Lawrence's work.
Framed: 39 1/4 x 34 inches. Conserved by Timothy Lennon, The Art Institute of Chicago, 1980.
