Margaret Hoening French


Although her painting work is generally eclipsed by that of her husband Jared French and 
PaJaMa partner Paul Cadmus, Margaret Hoening French was a fairly accomplished artist.  
This Fire Island inspired piece is called The Moon by Day, and it was done in 1938.
Enlarge it if you can, and you will see some nice details.

  1. Mrs French is the kind of woman that I think highly of. To assist, and be a part of photographing and painting pictures of naked men is admirable!
