About this work
Under a series of round arches, three women in long dresses gather around a small triangular table set with a chess board, a coffee pot and cups. One in pale yellow, her dark hair loose, holds a cup and saucer; a second leans forward in a coral dress, reaching toward the pieces; a third stands apart in a mustard-gold gown, hands clasped before her. Potted topiary, a patterned rug on the wall, and round windows opening onto trees frame the scene.
Warm golds, creams and soft violets fill the space under a diffuse, even light, painted with smooth modeling and careful architectural detail. The composition's calm symmetry and unhurried gestures give the scene a hushed, contemplative elegance.
