Mary McEvoy was an artist who trained at the Slade School of Art and married the portrait painter Ambrose McEvoy. Epstein captures her here in a serene pose and uses an expressive, naturalistic style often seen in early Renaissance busts. McEvoy sat for the bust in candlelight because of an electricity failure.
