Victorio C. Edades is one of the pioneering figures of Filipino modern art who studied art in the US. He also taught many artists who later became masters of Filipino art such as Carlos Francisco and Galo Ocampo. This is a portrait of Jane Noble Garott, the house-mother of the Filipino Club House in Seattle and her daughter, Jean. This work was created when the artist was studying in the US. Jean later married the artist.
