About this work
A woman with dark hair braided and pinned back stands in three-quarter profile, wearing a sleeveless deep-red gown and drop earrings, one hand gathering the skirt's fabric while the other rests near her chest with a beaded bracelet at the wrist. Beside her a tall mirror holds a softer, doubled reflection of her figure, set against a plain olive-toned wall.
Warm reds, ochres and olive greens dominate the palette, with light falling from the front left to catch her collarbone and the sheen of the dress. Brushwork is loose and confident, especially in the drapery, while the mirrored double is left soft and unresolved. The downward gaze and muted tones give the scene a quiet, contemplative feel.
