About this work
A woman is shown in close-up bust view, her dark hair topped by a wide hat covered entirely in painted roses and small flowers in red, yellow, blue, and purple. She wears drop earrings, a lace collar fastened with a round red brooch at the throat, and looks directly out at the viewer with a steady, unsmiling expression.
Half her face and neck are modeled in cool greenish shadow against the warm, textured orange background, contrasting with the paler lit side and red lips. Brushwork is loose and visible, especially in the collar's thick white impasto and the loaded color of the floral hat. The unusual green shading and close framing give the small portrait an intense, searching presence.
