I just love the work of Florine Stettheimer! It’s fun, colorful, and completely unique. I’ve seen her work at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Yale University Art Gallery, the Philadelphia Museum of Art (the painting above), and the Newark Museum, and I’m always so happy when I spot one of her paintings. Because I enjoy Florine’s work so much, I wrote an article about her for DailyArt Magazine. Give it a read to learn about her one-of-a-kind life and work.
