Auntie Susie Reading 1910

"Auntie Susie Reading" is a 1910 etching by British artist Francis Dodd (1874-1949). The artwork depicts a woman, presumably the artist's aunt, reclining on a couch while engrossed in a book. The image is rendered in a realist style, capturing the subtle details of the woman's posture, the texture of the fabric, and the soft light illuminating the scene. Dodd's etching reflects his interest in capturing the quiet moments of everyday life.
