ALICE NEEL A scene-stealing iconic print by Alice Neel. Neel depicts John Rothschild, a wealthy and well-connected man. Neel and Rothschild had a famous friendship, one complicated and often painful. Rothschild left his wife and children in hopes of marrying Neel, but disappointment with a previous marriage made her determined not to remarry. Regardless, Rothschild was a friend, lover, and supporter to Neel. Their extensive relationship gave her intimate access to his struggles and flaws, which she captures in this portrait. Stripped of wealth and grandeur, Neel’s art renders her figures raw and unvarnished.
