About this work
A woman stands wrapped almost entirely in a heavy ivory shawl that covers her head and falls in deep folds to the ground, only her face and two hands emerging. She tilts her head down, gaze averted, against a plain dark maroon wall.
Warm flesh tones and ivory whites play against cool grey shadows in the fabric and the deep red-brown ground. Raking light carves the drapery into crisp planes of highlight and shadow, while face and hands are modeled with careful precision, giving the figure a quiet, introspective stillness.
