The Readers is a 1897 by Clarence H. White, a Impressionism work, depicting Reading, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
The painting shows two women reading a book together. They are sitting in a quiet room with soft lighting. The women seem lost in thought, which makes the scene feel calm. The artist used a simple setting to focus on the women's faces. Their expressions are subtle, but you can tell they're engaged in the story. Check out the work of artist: Clarence H. White (American, 1871–1925) for more like this.
Clarence Hudson White was an American photographer, teacher and a founding member of the Photo-Secession movement.
