The painting is of Pène's favourite director Juliana Force. Force was so drawn to Whitney Museum of American Art and her circle that that her own husband was reduced to a background figure in her life. Pène insisted on painting Force when he fatefully encountered her at the museum. Pène was a noted art critic and painter and even later, when he became the noted painter, he was still the art critic as well, coining his brief aphorisms with a dash of cosmopolitan cynicism, cool wisdom and dry humor.


I regretted the intervention of his trips abroad; but our intimate conversations were resumed whenever opportunity afforded, Pène remaining as ever my real spiritual comrade. He was always a wise friend, a wise teacher, the possessor of an individual and rare skill in painting, his life a notable one, his contacts illustrious. I envy him only all that his history entails in names and places, covering so much of our present art history.

Guy Pene du Bois was a 20th-century American painter, art critic, and educator. His excellent artwork mirrored the culture and society around him including cafes, theatres and flappers. He had developed a style dominated by simplified and stylized figures, depicted with a laconic eye and sharp awareness of the pomposity and artifice of social encounters.
