This work depicts Marion Jones Farquhar (1879-1965), an American tennis player who competed during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. She won the singles titles at the 1899 and 1902 U.S. championships, and was the first American woman to medal at the Olympics, winning the bronze in singles. Additionally, she was the artist’s sister-in-law who often played and competed with MacMonnies in golf and tennis. MacMonnies would often study the movements of her form referenced in his sculpture. When MacMonnies won a doubles golf tournament he said, “Marion dragged my dead weight thro’ and won us the tournament, showing what great Generalship can do.”

Charles Ragland Bunnell (1897-1968) was an American painter, printmaker and muralist. He was born in Kansas City, Missouri, in 1897 and moved to Colorado Springs, Colorado, in 1915. Bunnell enlisted and served in the United States Army during World War I. He studied at the Broadmoor Art Academy (now the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center). Throughout the 1930s he was involved with the Public Works of Art Project and the Works Progress Administration (WPA). Influenced by the art movement of abstract expressionism, Bunnell transitioned from landscapes and figures towards abstraction in the 1950s. His works can be found in many museum collections including Denver’s Kirkland Museum and the Fralin Museum in Virginia.

Brilliance of Red

Alice Trumbull Mason (1904-1971) was a pioneer abstract American artist, who co-founded American Abstract Artists in New York in 1936, and later served as its president. Brilliance in Red from 1943 was exhibited in the landmark exhibition Eight by Eight, American Abstract Painting since 1940, organized by the Philadelphia Museum of Art in 1945. Its structurally balanced geometric shapes seem to rotate clockwise against a brilliant red background making both a formally cogent and dynamic statement.

The Infanta

William Merritt Chase had a special fondness for portraiture, and his wife and daughters served as models for many of his finest works. The Infanta features Helen Velazquez Chase when she was about four years old and was painted at the artist’s studio in Shinnecock, Long Island. Here, Chase depicted his daughter in a costume similar to the elaborate dress worn in Diego Velazquez’s 1656 portrait, Infanta Margarita in Las Meninas, in the collection of Museo del Prado in Madrid.
