"Little Sister" is a notable painting by Elizabeth Adela Stanhope Forbes, a prominent figure in the Newlyn School of artists. Created in 1907, this work exemplifies Forbes' adeptness in capturing the innocence and simplicity of childhood, a recurring theme in her oeuvre. The painting features a young girl, presumably the artist's daughter, standing in a domestic interior, bathed in soft, natural light that enhances the tender and intimate atmosphere of the scene.

Elizabeth Forbes, born in 1859 in Ontario, Canada, was a significant contributor to the late 19th and early 20th-century British art scene. She trained in London and later in Munich, where she was influenced by the plein air movement, which emphasized painting outdoors to capture natural light and atmosphere. Forbes eventually settled in Newlyn, Cornwall, where she became a central figure in the Newlyn School, a colony of artists known for their realistic and often socially conscious depictions of rural life.

"Little Sister" is a testament to Forbes' skill in both composition and the use of color. The painting's delicate brushwork and the harmonious palette reflect her ability to convey the subtleties of light and texture. The subject's pose and expression are rendered with a sensitivity that invites viewers to contemplate the quiet moments of everyday life.

Forbes' work, including "Little Sister," has been celebrated for its emotional depth and technical proficiency. Her contributions to the Newlyn School and her role in the broader context of British art have cemented her legacy as a pivotal figure in the transition from Victorian to modernist sensibilities in painting. "Little Sister" remains a cherished piece, reflecting the artist's enduring fascination with the themes of childhood and domesticity.
