Natalie (1917). Frank W. Benson (American, 1862-1951). Worcester Art Museum.A photograph shows Benson painting Natalie while she sits on a rail fence, perhaps at Wooster Farm, off the coast of Maine, in North Haven in Penobscot Bay. Benson combined his interest in the figure and a preference for plein air painting. The solidity of the figure reflects the lingering influence of Benson’s early training with academic painters. -- source link
