Dazzlingly bright slanting sunlight illuminates the artist’s white smock and highlights the side of his forehead. But Zorn’s studio is gloomy, and shapes and details are hard to discern. In the background, his model, an Italian girl, sits with her long, auburn hair wrapped around her. Zorn’s self-portrait was exhibited in Stockholm in 1897.

Miss Maud Cassel (Mrs. Ashley) is a perfect example of technique mirroring subject. Maud Cassel was the daughter of industrialist Ernest Cassel-just the sort of social luminary who fascinated Anders Zorn, whose own parents worked in a brewery. Zorn portrayed Maud at her debut into society, using decisive, slashing lines to convey her determined gaze and satisfied pose amid the opulence that defined her life. She later became mother-in-law to Earl Mountbatten of Burma.
