Label TextAlthough its date and place of publication are not identified, this undated watercolor is characteristic of Barber Stephens’ mature style. In a quiet scene of two women conversing in a domestic setting, the face of the one on the left is partially obscured by a veil; her mood is evident in just a slight tilt of her head. The artist excelled at such subtle touches.
