About this work
Seated frontally with forearms crossed and hands clasped in her lap, a young woman with long black hair looks out at the viewer, unsmiling. She wears a sleeveless dress with a dark bodice flecked with gold and green over a pale, loosely gathered skirt. The plain, mottled grey-brown wall behind her holds no other detail, keeping attention on her face and pose.
Skin and features are modeled smoothly, while the dress and background are built from broad, loaded strokes that leave visible ridges of paint. Cool greys dominate the setting, set off by warm skin tones and scattered jewel-like color in the bodice. The contrast between tight facial rendering and loose, textured surroundings gives the portrait a quiet, searching intensity.
