Charles Demuth’s most famous paintings are in a hard-lined and tightly-controlled industrial style called Precisionism, which he helped develop, but his watercolors of people, fruit, and flowers are loose, sensuous, and evocative. This casual study of a woman in a studio at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art was made when Demuth was a student there. Based upon a somewhat illegible inscription on the back, this figure may be Helen Torr, a modernist artist who ran in the same circles as Demuth and eventually married the artist Arthur Dove.
