About this work
A full-length woman with an elaborate copper hairstyle stands with one hand on her hip and the other raised, holding a human skull at eye level as if studying it. She wears a fitted violet jacket over a sheer bodice and oversized quilted green jodhpurs with brown high-heeled boots; two pug dogs and a small red ball sit at her feet, while a tall white cabinet holding a leafy twig and drafting instruments stands to her right.
Saturated violet and acid green dominate against a softly mottled wall, with smooth modeling of skin and crisp detail in the props. The theatrical pose and clinical skull lend a wry, dreamlike charge to the portrait.
