1889
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Rosita Mauri is a 1889 by Anders Zorn, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a woman standing inside a dim room. She wears a simple dress and holds her hands near her chest. The background is filled with fast, slanted lines that blur the walls and door behind her. The artist used lots of sharp, uneven strokes to create light and shadow. This style makes the scene feel quick and alive, like a snapshot. Try looking up Realism to see more art that focuses on everyday moments like this one.
Anders Leonard Zorn was born in February 1860 in Mora, Dalarna, the illegitimate son of a Bavarian brewer and a Swedish farmer's daughter; his mother died shortly after his birth, and his grandparents raised him.
