About this work
A young woman with loose curly brown hair sits playing a wooden acoustic guitar, her fingers braced on the fretboard and her other hand resting near the sound hole. She wears a costume patched together from diamond-shaped panels in red, blue, green, pink and white, evoking a harlequin or commedia dell'arte character, and looks out at the viewer with a faint, composed smile.
Loose, confident brushstrokes build the patchwork costume from flat, saturated blocks of color that contrast with the softer, more blended modeling of the face and hands. The background is a muted grey scumbled with vertical streaks, keeping attention on the figure and guitar, and the overall mood is playful and theatrical rather than solemn.
