Elsie Reading to Emma, Second Stone is a 1921 by George Bellows, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a woman reading aloud to a child in a simple room. A lamp casts warm light on the pages. The older woman’s face stays in shadow while the child leans in close. Bellows painted this late in his career. He often focused on daily life and relationships. Check out more works by George Bellows at the Cleveland Museum of Art.
