    Another art history post for today: by Alice Barber Stephens (1858-1932), "Christmas on Fifth Avenue," 1896, oil on canvas, 22 by 31 in. (55.9 by 78.7 cm.), sold at auction in 2007 for $46,000, Sotheby's, New York. #arthistory #art #cheistmas

    Info on the artist from The Brandywine Museum of Art:
    "Alice Barber Stephens was one of the most prolific women artists of her day. She was an engraver, painter, and illustrator. She began her training at the Philadelphia School of Design for Women (now Moore College of Art).

    Moving to the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, she studied life drawing with Thomas Eakins in 1876 and became a firm supporter of his controversial teaching methods.
    Her work regularly appeared in magazines, and throughout her career she illustrated a number of important books, including Louisa May Alcott's Little Women and Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Marble Faun. She was also a teacher and, along with Emily Sartain, founded the Philadelphia Plastic Club, an arts organization for women. As an illustrator, she demonstrated confident ability in handling a range of subject matter and in creating black and white images for reproduction."
