The Madge Tennent works form an intact permanent collection and are not for sale. The Tennent Art Foundation made Hawaii Preparatory Academy the custodian of the artist's work to conserve, preserve, and utilize for education in perpetuity. |
In the classical pose and symmetrical proportions of this figure, we see striking parallels to the work of William-Adolphe Bouguereau, a champion of traditional painting (known as Academicism) who became Madge’s personal tutor at the Académie Julian.
