The Fur Jacket 1910

"The Fur Jacket," painted in 1910 by American artist Joseph DeCamp, is a portrait of a woman in a black fur coat and hat. DeCamp was a prominent member of the "The Ten," a group of American artists who rejected the academic style in favor of a more personal, expressive approach. This painting showcases DeCamp's ability to capture both the beauty and the mood of his subject through skillful brushstrokes and a subtle palette, emphasizing the interplay of light and shadow.
