EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs. Thompson Seton, 1901" is a captivating black and white etching on ivory laid paper created by the renowned Swedish artist Anders Leonard Zorn. The artwork depicts Grace Gallatin Seton Thompson, an American suffragette and social reformer, standing confidently with a rifle slung over her shoulder and a hat in her hand. Dressed in a fashionable yet practical outfit, Mrs. Thompson Seton exudes an air of determination and strength. Her direct gaze and posture suggest a woman who is not afraid to challenge societal norms and assert her rights. This powerful portrait was created during the early 20th century, a time of great social and political change in both America and Europe. The artistic movement of realism was gaining popularity, and Zorn's masterful use of light and shadow, as well as his ability to capture the essence of his subject, make this etching a standout piece of the era. Mrs. Thompson Seton's occupation as a suffragette adds an extra layer of significance to the artwork. At a time when women's rights were not yet recognized, she stood as a symbol of courage and perseverance. The rifle in her hand serves as a reminder of the challenges she faced and the battles she was willing to fight for her cause. This etching is a valuable addition to any art collection, particularly those focused on realist art or the history of women's rights. It is currently housed in the Prints and Drawings department of the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and intrigue visitors from around the world.
