About the painting
This painting shows the interior of Mrs. George R. Fearing’s apartment in a Paris hotel. Mrs. Fearing was an American who shared Walter Gay’s interest in French decorative arts. In this painting, eighteenth-century tapestries hang on either side of the double doors with Louis XV tapestry-covered chairs underneath. Gay once said, “I had a sentiment for the past; it meant much to me . . . I was searching for the spirit of empty rooms---interiors.” (Walter Gay: A Retrospective, Grey Art Gallery and Study Center, New York, 1980)
