About the Item
Story illustration for “Medical Center: Special Nurse” by Faith Baldwin for Hearst’s International Combined with Cosmopolitan, published March 1940.
The narrative, described as “an absorbing novelette of modern hospital life,” follows Eunice Watson, a nurse whose beauty runs more than skin-deep, which could prove to be a fatal gift in her profession. The scene shows Eunice attending to a glamorous woman lounging and talking on the telephone.
The accompanying published caption reads: “The week she nursed Shirley Gwynn in her hotel suite was the maddest Eunice had ever spent.”

Portrait of Madame Why
By Nora See
Located in New Orleans, LA
“Good artists borrow. Great artists steal.” A quote oft attributed to various sources that was never actually uttered by any of them. Though Mark Twain elaborated on the sentiment: “Ninety-nine parts of all things that proceed from the intellect are plagiarisms.” In the Framed Series, I use my 1% contribution to combine issues of consumption with my autobiography.
I paint copies of copies of paintings within paintings to reference the appropriation, commodification, and altered continuum of art. My paintings of paintings...
