Charles Morgan described Bellows' mother in the following manner:
She was a good natured woman, tall, black-haired and bulky who, at the age of
forty-two, had forsaken her spinsterhood and her home in Sag Harbor, Long Island, for a
short slight widower nine years older than herself. It is doubtful if either had
considered the possibility of their elderly union producing children.
George Bellows, Anna's only child, created this lithograph of his mother when she was
eighty-three years old.
