The work depicts the artist’s sister-in-law, Violet Organ. Between 1914 and 1916, Violet, better known as Viv, appeared in numerous compositions by the artist. Valerie Leeds notes, “The portrait of Viv was painted in Falmouth, Massachusetts where he had to go for a portrait commission. Viv was exceptionally close to the Henris and frequently accompanied them on summer excursions. During this time, Henri was executing a number of female portraits, both bust- and half-length nudes and clothed studies in similar palettes. As seen in Viv, his work during this phase appropriated a more colorful spectrum of brightened tones.”
