Miss McNeill (Dorelia McNeill 1881-1969)

Augustus Edwin John R.A., O.M. 1878 - 1961

Summary

Two monochrome portrait studies of a woman, standing in profile to the right with her head turned towards, and gazing directly at, the viewer. The study to the right is a detail of the face and neck, which are described tonally, with the hair and shoulders depicted in line. The second portrait is three-quarter length: her hair is loosely gathered on top of her head, she has a slight smile, and wears a dress gathered at the waist; her arm hangs by her side; the head and neck are described tonally, the body in line.
