A Rose is an early 20th-century painting by American artist Thomas Anshutz. Done in oil on canvas, the work depicts a young woman, Rebecca H. Whelen, sitting in a chair wearing a rose-colored dress. The painting, in keeping with artistic themes of the early 20th-century, compares a woman and her attire to a rose flower, but also evokes the sense that the young woman is intellectually and emotionally alert. Whelen herself was the daughter of a trustee of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts at which Anshutz was a long-time teacher.[1]
Anshutz's work has been compared to that of his contemporary Thomas Eakins (specifically Eakins' 1900 portrait The Thinker) and to Diego Velázquez.[2]
A Rose is in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.[1]
