Item Description: Translate description
Oil pastel portrait of a young woman, breasts exposed. Beautifully framed, in elegant wooden frame with gold accent. Pastel dimensions: 14" wide x 17" tall. Overall frame:21" wide x 24" tall x 3" deep. A note affixed to the backer board reads: " Dec 27, 1900 Cary Nation tried to destroy this image of "pensive maiden" along side of Cleopatra bathing. She was stopped before. L Smith 1900." Adjacent to where this note is affixed is "Cary House 1898" hand etched into the fiberboard backer. Prohibitionist Carry Nation smashes up the bar at the Carey Hotel in Wichita, Kansas, causing several thousand dollars in damage and landing in jail. Nation, who was released shortly after the incident, became famous for carrying a hatchet and wrecking saloons as part of her anti-alcohol crusade. After the incident at the Carey Hotel, her fame increased as she continued her saloon-smashing campaign in other locations and traveled extensively to speak out in favor of temperance. Source: https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/carry-nation-smashes-bar She was once quoted having said: “I felt invincible. My strength was that of a giant. God was certainly standing by me. I smashed five saloons with rocks before I ever took a hatchet.”
