About this work
A dark-haired woman is shown half-length, crowned with a small jeweled tiara and bare-shouldered, wearing a black gown with a ruffled, feather-like trim at the neckline and lace fingerless gloves. Her hands are folded loosely at her waist as she turns her head to gaze steadily out at the viewer.
A deep maroon and burnt-sienna ground surrounds her, its streaked, semi-abstract brushwork contrasting with the smoother, warmly lit modeling of her face and shoulders. The black costume is built up with loose, textured strokes suggesting feathers and lace, while soft frontal light picks out her pale skin. The effect is theatrical and dramatic, with a composed, faintly melancholic expression.
