EDITORS COMMENTS

Dressed in a stunning satin dress adorned with intricate lace details, she epitomizes the fashion of the era. The attention to detail is remarkable as every element of this artwork has been meticulously crafted. From the delicate flowers delicately placed on her neckline to the shimmering pearl necklace that enhances her beauty, each aspect adds depth and charm to the composition. Spencer's skillful use of color brings life to this oil painting, creating a sense of warmth and intimacy within an indoor setting. The soft lighting highlights Mrs. Fithian's radiant complexion while casting gentle shadows on the rich fabric of her attire. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we are transported back in time to witness not only a moment frozen forever but also gain insight into societal norms and cultural values during that period. Through "We Both Must Fade". Spencer captures both ephemeral beauty and timeless elegance. This artwork now resides at the Smithsonian American Art Museum, serving as a testament to Lilly Martin Spencer's talent as well as preserving our heritage for future generations to appreciate and learn from its historical significance.
