Anne and Italian Tutor, Rome 1966

Frank Mason's 1966 painting, "Anne and Italian Tutor, Rome," depicts a young woman seated at a table with an open book in front of her. A second woman, wearing a pink sweater and a skirt, stands across from the seated figure in an interior setting. The composition is simple and emphasizes the intimate interaction between the two subjects, creating a sense of quiet contemplation and a hint of romance. The painting is rendered in a realistic style, with muted tones and a soft, diffused light.
