Mr. Keeling discusses miniature portraits of notable women including Mrs. Merly of Baltimore and Mrs. John R. Drexel. He notes the charm of coloring and the idea that beauty may lie in expressive moments more than perfect features. The artist seeks “radiant moments” of a woman’s life to glorify the picture. Mr. Keeling, staying with his sister Mrs. Stilson Hutchins, will soon return to England.
