DESCRIPTION

George Bellows is best-known for taking on gritty subjects-German wartime atrocities, clandestine boxing matches and the lives of the urban poor-but his late works have a decidedly softer feel. Anne with a Japanese Parasol is a portrait of his first daughter, born September 8th, 1911. Her adorably backwards grip on the parasol is reminiscent of Mary Cassatt's Children Playing on the Beach, in which a toddler is shown manipulating a shovel from the wrong end of the shaft. In that piece Cassatt tilted the picture plane to situate the spectator as an adult looking down upon the scene. Bellows achieves a similar effect by Anne's upward gaze and the fact that she does not rise to the height of the picture frame. We therefore respond to her not only as a child, but as a child for whom we feel responsible.
