Portrait of Arabella Worsham (later Arabella Huntington)
1882
Not on view
This portrait of Arabella Worsham (1851-1924) was commissioned from Alexandre Cabanel, a French Academic painter, during Worsham's first stay in Paris. She would later marry Collis Huntington, one of the “Big Four” American railroad magnates, becoming one of the richest women in the United States upon his death in 1900. Worsham subsequently married Collis Huntington's nephew, Henry Huntington, and parts of their art collection formed the original holdings of the Huntington Art Collections in San Marino, California.
