In this mesmerizing scene, a man and woman are depicted in a studio surrounded by sculptures. The woman is dressed in a stunning Victorian gown, exuding grace and sophistication. Her eyes meet those of the man, as if she is asking him a profound question: "Will you be my friend indeed?". The artist skillfully brings to life the characters from Hawthorne's literary masterpiece, published originally in 1860. Through her delicate strokes and attention to detail, Stephens transports us into the world of "The Marble Faun" where art intertwines with reality.
