About this work
A girl is shown half-length, a dark, gold-patterned shawl draped over her head like a hood and falling past her shoulders. She holds the long fringed ends of the cloth in both hands at her chest, her gaze direct but withdrawn, set against a bare, chalky background.
The palette is restricted to near-black browns and ochres against pale grey paper, with soft pastel blending across the face and looser, scratchy strokes describing the heavy fabric. The stark contrast and averted stillness of the pose give the portrait a hushed, meditative quality.
