About this work
A young woman with a floral crown sits sideways on a plain wooden chair, wearing a red dress printed with small white flowers. She holds a carved wooden mallard decoy in both hands at her lap, one bare leg crossed over the other, foot lifted off the blue floor. She gazes directly outward with a calm, steady expression.
The composition is built from cool blues and warm reds: a diamond-patterned curtain in pale blue and grey fills the backdrop, set against a solid blue floor and white wall. Soft, even light models the figure with smooth, controlled brushwork typical of academic figure painting, giving the scene a quiet, poised stillness.
