Mrs Richard Day 

Thomas Eakins, known for his realist approach to portraiture, created this painting of Mrs. Richard Day. The work features a close-up view of the subject's face, emphasizing her features and expression. Eakins's masterful use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and realism. The dark background and the subject's attire, particularly the lace collar, add to the sense of formality. The painting is a testament to Eakins's skill in capturing the essence of his subjects and conveying a sense of individuality.
