ROBERT HENRI (1865–1929)
Lady in Interior, about 1892–94
Ink on brown paper, 10 1/2 x 8 1/2 in.
Signed and inscribed (with embossed estate stamp, at lower left): R / H; (on the back): 92–94
EX COLL.: the artist, about 1894–1929; to estate of the artist; to [Hirschl & Adler Galleries, New York, 1968]; to private collection, 1968 until the present
The present drawing comes directly from the artist’s estate, which dated it “[18]92–94,” the time that Henri was largely working in Philadelphia. The style of the dress and the form of the hat would tend to confirm the date.
