#Caturday :
Andrew Wyeth (PA, USA, 1917-2009)
Miss Olson, 1952
Tempera on panel
Private Collection, currently on display at Brandywine Museum of Art
“Four years after Andrew Wyeth made Christina Olson iconic in Christina's World (MOMA), he created this tender portrait of her. With extraordinary sensitivity to a seemingly straightforward subject—a woman and a cat in the corner of a worn room—he invites us to reflect on the stories this person and place could tell.”
