DescriptionThis dramatic portrait conveys the strong character of Yvonne, who followed in her father’s footsteps as a successful painter. Pène Du Bois and his artist daughter, Yvonne, were favorites of Alix Stanley, a major patron of the Museum. She taught Stanley to paint and hoped to become the second Mrs. Stanley, without success.
