Description (Dublin Core)
One page from a newspaper from January 2002 either titled “Art Matters” or from a newspaper section under the same title. If the former, this could be from what is now known as the Art Renewal Center, which is an outlet covering Realism in art based in New Jersey. Their website shows record of having at one time run the same image of the portrait of McFadden and printed a similar article on Nelson Shanks. McFadden does not appear in the article proper in either rendition, but her image and name beneath do appear in the archival item. The current website in 2026 shows a collaboration with Sotheby’s in New York. The portrait of McFadden appears between a portrait painted by Shanks of Jenny Taubman on the left and Princess Diana of Wales on the right. McFadden appears nude from the waist adorned with jewelry and sitting in front of a painting of the Buddha.
