A June Idyl  1887

Gallery label: [br]In A June Idyl the artist’s daughter, Daisy, reads to her brother beneath a tree. Steele did not often include figures so prominently in his landscapes, but here he does so with virtuoso skill. The bright red hat amid the lush green grass offers a dramatic dash of color, a recurring element in Steele’s compositions. [url=http://collection.imamuseum.org/a...
