“Marie Louis Kane has said of the present work, “With this painting Miller comes back to the subject of a young woman seated at her dressing table which he first introduced in his work in 1904 and which he successfully reinterpreted for the rest of his career.”  She goes on, “In Signora all Teletta, the figure’s sweeping satin gown, painted in bold, broad brushstrokes is sharply contrasted with the fine, porcelain-like finish of the figure’s skin, pariticularly the face and shoulders .  This techincal virtuosity, which led a St. Louis gallery owner, in 1907, to compare MIller favorably to Sargent, quickly cuaght the attention of critics and collectors, and led to Miller being given his own gallery (which he shared with Frieseke) at the 1909 Venice Biennale.”
