About this work
A woman with long dark hair sits sideways on a patterned cushioned trunk, elbow on knee and chin resting in her hand in a pensive pose. She wears a white sleeveless, ruffled blouse with a wristwatch and bracelet, gazing calmly off to the side. A dark wooden armoire with carved ornament stands behind her at the right.
Lit from the left, the skin is modeled in warm browns with soft highlights on cheek, shoulder and hands against a plain ochre wall. The blouse is built with loose, fluid strokes, while the trunk beneath her reads more loosely in blue and rust. The handling is direct and painterly, giving the portrait a calm, intimate presence.
