1902
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Julia Hall McCune is a 1902 by Clarence H. White, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This drawing shows a woman sitting with her hands resting on her lap. She’s dressed in a long, simple dress with a high collar, and her hair is pulled back. The background is mostly dark, making her face and arms stand out. The artist used soft shading to show light and shadow on her face and clothes. This makes her look calm and a bit mysterious.
