Эрнеста (Ребенок с няней)

Cecilia Beaux American
1894
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 768
Двухлетняя племянница и любимая модель Бо, Эрнеста Дринкер держит за руку няню, Мэтти, чья фигура бесцеремонно обрезана. Оригинальная композиция и непринужденная живописная манера отражают восхищение Бо перед работами Эдуарда Мане и Эдгара Дега. Эрнеста напоминает царственного ребенка с полотен Диего Веласкеса, одновременно величественного и беззащитного. Рука Мэтти — универсальный символ защиты и безопасности, а ее широкий передник и униформа задают масштаб для крохотной фигурки ребенка.
