British Women Artist-Activists at The Clark Art Institute
artherstory.net/british-wome...

The post is an illustrated discussion of "A Room of Her Own: Women Artist-Activists in Britain, 1875–1945," currently on at The Clark Art Institute.
A painting of two pale-skinned women in long white gowns with lamb chop sleeves standing at a small table on top of which sits a large blue and white bowl sitting on a white towel. The lady on the right, with her back to the viewer, seems to be washing a dish. There is a blue and white ewer at her feet. The lady on the left, who appears to be conversing with her partner, holds a second towel, apparently waiting to dry the dial Behind them are white shelves and cupboard; many blue and white dishes are visible o the shelves.
