Original Description
The portrait of Edith Hope Iselin by Philip Alexius de László (1913) radiates Edwardian elegance through the artist's signature high-society style. Depicted in a sumptuous pink satin gown with delicate lace accents, Mrs. Iselin embodies aristocratic refinement against a muted olive-green background that accentuates her luminous complexion. De László's virtuoso brushwork – particularly in capturing the interplay of light on fabrics and pearls – demonstrates why he became the preeminent portraitist of European nobility and American elite during the Gilded Age. This painting exemplifies his transitional period between formal court portraits and more intimate character studies, marking a significant evolution in early 20th-century portraiture. Now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the work serves as a vital document of transatlantic cultural patronage during America's industrial ascendancy.
For interior placement, this 50.8 × 40.6 cm oil-on-canvas commands attention best in formal spaces with 18th-century reproduction furniture or neoclassical architectural details. Hang it in a library above a mahogany partner's desk to create intellectual gravitas, or in a grand foyer paired with urn-shaped table lamps echoing its oval composition. The painting's rosy palette harmonizes beautifully with Farrow & Ball's "Setting Plaster" walls or deep emerald textiles that mirror its background tones. For offices, position opposite large windows to allow natural light to animate Mrs. Iselin's pearl necklaces throughout the day. Avoid cluttered arrangements – the portrait deserves solitary prominence within a 1.5-meter sightline, ideally at 145cm from floor to center for proper viewing elevation. Period-appropriate framing in water-gilded compo moldings with acanthus leaf motifs would complete its seamless integration into traditional interiors.
