1884, Cecilia Beaux, Ethel Page (Mrs. James Large) -- National Museum of Women in the Arts (Washington)
From the museum label: Beaux captured the likenesses of numerous cultural and political leaders, but many of her most powerful portraits depict her relatives and friends. Ethel Page, a member of a distinguished Philadelphia family, first met Beaux in 1876. This painting is the first of several portraits of Page by Beaux. The composition’s deep tones and dark background resemble the portrait style of Dutch master Rembrandt, whose work Beaux admired.
