Mrs. Fiske Warren (Gretchen Osgood) and Her Daughter Rachel
John Singer Sargent · 1903
Why it's great
A mother in a flowing red gown stands with her little girl, in front of a rich background. John Singer Sargent painted wealthy Boston families like the Warrens. His brush made the satin and lace shimmer. It's a lovely portrait of mother and child.
