Memories by American Painter Irving Ramsay Wiles (1861 – 1948) and illustrator and became a very successful portrait artist.

This is a group portrait painting comprising of two young ladies and a gentlemen. The man is playing a piano, but it may also be a harpsichord; while the young lady behind and to the right of him watches on.

The other young lady meanwhile is sitting on the arm of a chair in front of the piano with her head tilted downward listening thoughtfully to the music.

Irving Ramsay Wiles was educated at the Sedgwick Institute in Great Barrington, and learned the basics of painting from his father, Lemuel M. Wiles (1826 – 1905), who focused primarily on landscapes. From 1879 to 1881 he studied in the Art Students League of New York under James Carroll Beckwith and William Merritt Chase, and later in Paris under Carolus-Duran.

In his early years, he worked as an illustrator for American magazines, and later he devoted himself with great success to portraiture. He was a member of the Society of American Artists, which prefaced his 1897 election into the National Academy of Design as an associate. Wiles was also a member of the American Water Color Society.
