Grace Rosher

Grace Rosher is an Impressionism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Grace Rosher painted portraits in mid-20th-century Britain. Her 1935 oil of Mrs Edward Compton shows a woman in a dark dress against a simple background, letting the subject’s face and hands do the talking. She worked in the same era as other British figurative painters, though she’s not tied to any named movement. See how Rosher lights Virginia’s pearl earring in the dim room—tap to zoom on the quiet realism of “Mrs Edward Compton.”
