Claude Hirst — born Claudine — was the only acclaimed woman to work in the realistic style of still life painting known as trompe l’oeil(“fool the eye”), which flourished in America at the turn of the 20th century. Hirst’s intimately scaled oils and watercolors display her dazzling skill for rendering the surfaces and textures of objects.
