About this work
A dancer sits low on the stage floor with one pointe-shod leg extended, leaning back on her arms as her head tilts down toward her hands. She wears a pale bodice above a full blue and black tutu, a small tiara in her dark upswept hair, and a red slipper lies discarded beside her foot.
Warm golden-brown light bathes the floor and skin against the cooler blue of the skirt, setting up a strong color contrast. Loose, confident strokes describe the fabric's volume while the face and hands are more finely finished, giving the reclining figure a tired, contemplative stillness.
