N.B. Thomas Wilmer Dewing, a Boston native and founding member of the Impressionist artists’ group The Ten, isbest known for his refined and poetic figural works which challenge conceptions of beauty, femininity, and women’s rolein society. Dewing played with elements of ambiguity, intimacy and isolation within his subtle compositions.

His dreamlike images feature ethereal women bathed in light who stand in contrast to their bare, shadowedenvironment. These wispy figures, emerging out of the simple background, are weighted by their full skirts whichcontrast their elongated necks, shoulders, and arms.

Later in his career, Dewing began to play with the spatial relationship between two figures within a composition, as hedoes here. He exploited the distance between two women “using the expanse between [them] to suggest subtlepsychological tensions.”1 These compositions underscore Dewing’s attempt to create a mood of aloofness andseparation. Perhaps borrowing from Johannes Vermeer’s compositions, Dewing used symbolic objects in hiscompositions to create mood and activate the viewer’s imagination.2 He frequently depicted women with musicalinstruments which create an “emotional atmosphere and sense of reverie.”3
