Mrs. Edwin Champney (Lady with a Tray) is a 1922 oil by Giovanni Battista Troccoli, a Impressionism work, held at Museum of Fine Arts Boston.
The painting depicts an elderly woman seated in a chair, dressed in a long, light-colored robe with a white head covering. She holds a tray with a cup and saucer in one hand and a small object in the other. The background is dark, with a hint of a window or door frame on the left side. The woman's face is serene, with a subtle expression. Her eyes are cast downward, and her hands are gently placed on the tray and object. The overall atmosphere is one of quiet contemplation. The use of chiaroscuro in this painting creates a sense of depth and dimensionality, drawing the viewer's eye to the woman's face and hands.
Giovanni Battista Troccoli (1882–1940) was an artist.
