3" in diameter, Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. On December 22, 1910 Dix married Alfred Leroy Becker, a New York lawyer, after a three-year engagement. The marriage produced two children, Philip and Joan. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eulabee_Dix] The miniature revival, of which Dix was a key participant, began in the 1890s. It coincided with American interest in colonial history and the Arts and Crafts movement, which valued handcraft. Dix and others adapted the traditional methods and materials of miniature painting to modern style and subjects. [https://nmwa.org/explore/artist-profiles/eulabee-dix]
