About this work
A dark-haired woman in a strapless red dress sits back in a wicker armchair, eyes closed, one bare foot resting on the ground and an open book on her lap. Beside her a small round table draped with a white cloth holds a white bowl of cherries, on whose rim a speckled thrush perches with its beak open. Behind them a hedge of white and pale pink hydrangea blooms rises against a blue sky crossed by a faint rainbow.
Cool blue-greens and soft whites of the garden surround the warm red of her dress, the strongest color note in the composition. Smooth, blended brushwork and even, diffused light give the scene a drowsy, midday calm centered on the sleeping figure.
