A charming portrait of a beautiful blue-eyed girl in a pink dress
holding flowers in her hand. It is based on Renaissance portraits where
the subject is pushed to the foreground and in the distant background,
you see a landscape. It appears as if Raphael's "The Madonna of the
Pinks" served as a reference point for the treatment of the hands
holding a rose and also the color scheme. Jean Mclane / Maclane's work
certainly suggests a close resemblance to the style of Robert Henri.
She based all of her work on sound academic training. Henri however,
had a richer paint surface. This work is quite beautiful to look at with
a charming sitter but it has been slightly over-cleaned and all of the
magenta in the dress has been strengthened with in-painting. Signed and
dated lower left. Exhibited Guild Hall, East Hampton and The
Pennsylvania Academy of The Fine Arts 125th Exhibition - Label of both
on verso - Fair: slightly over-cleaned and all of the magenta in the
dress has been widely strengthened with in-painting. Additional in-painting in
the hair and mountains. Light craquelure is mostly in the background.
Yet with the conservation, the painting presents very well in person.
