About this work
A woman with dark hair bound in a floral headband and pearl necklace sits sideways, cradling a large white swan across her lap. She leans her cheek against the bird's raised neck and closes her eyes, one arm wrapped around its folded wings; small flowers lie scattered on the ledge beside her.
Rendered in soft pastel in a muted grey-blue palette, the modeling is smooth and blended, with gentle gradations of light across skin and feathers. The subdued tones and closed eyes give the portrait a tender, contemplative calm.
