This artist had several sittings with George Washington, the result of which were numerous portraits despite “Anapathy [seeming] to seize him and a vacuity [spreading] over his countenance, most appalling to paint.”
This artist was one of two original California members of the art photography group the Photo-Secession, founded by Alfred Stieglitz, and she was the only Western photographer to be made a Fellow of the group.
