In this cheerful painting, representing two little girls seated at a
breakfast table flooded with the bright, clear light of a summer morning,
the real theme which has engaged the artist is nothing more nor less than
light itself. The tablecloth and window curtains half in sunlight, half
in luminous shadow, and the shining glassware and silver urn are ably
painted. The green of the garden and the yellow-green of sundrenched lawn
are seen through the window echoed in the interior by daffodills, lemons
and lime juice bottle, while happy touches of blue appear in the china and
one of the frocks. Silver and Green was painted 1913, and was awarded
Honorable Mention at the International Exhibition in Pittsburg in 1914.
