The Lady in White (Bracquemond)
Painting by Marie Bracquemond / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Lady in White (French: Le Dame en blanc), also known as The Woman in White, is an 1880 oil-on-canvas painting by French artist Marie Bracquemond. It depicts the artist's half-sister Louise Quivoron, who often served as a model for her paintings. It was one of three paintings by Bracquemond shown at the fifth Impressionist exhibition in April 1880. A previous painting, Woman in the Garden (1877), may have been a study for The Lady in White.[1] Like the other Impressionists of the time, Bracquemond worked outside en plein air, mostly in her garden at Sèvres.
