The President Woodrow Wilson House

The President Woodrow Wilson House
Washington, DC, United States

This painting features Ellen’s signature in the lower right-hand corner. In 1911, aware that her husband’s increasing prominence as a politician placed her own name in the public eye, Ellen exhibited her first work under an assumed name, Edward Wilson (signed E.A. Wilson). It wasn’t until a year later that Ellen revealed her identity as an artist.
