Monday Morning (Art) Mystery

On a recent trip to Philadelphia, Patty and I visited the Woodmere Art Museum in Chestnut Hill, a wonderful place with a wide range of sculpture, illustrations and fine art.

As with so many museums, the descriptions next to the art are sometimes wanting when it comes to bird identifications.  Like the painting above. I found it intriguing, but couldn't identify the bird. Can you?

    Looks somewhat like a female Boat Tailed Grackle, maybe? Also the rust color seems it could be a thrush of some kind. Is the painter still alive?
