A classic image from the 1920, "Memories of Olive" beautifully symbolizes the elegance and glamor we equate with the era in which she was painted. This is an idealized portrait of one of Ziegfeld's most famous and treasured stars, Olive Thomas.

Olive left the Follies for films in 1917, when she met and married Mary Pickford's brother, Jack. It was a romantic though rocky relationship that ended tragically in Paris when Thomas, after a night of partying, inexplicably overdosed on deadly tablets, mistaking them for sleeping pills. This portrait postdates her death in 1920, age twenty-six.
