About this work
Depicts a young woman turned slightly to one side, her curly reddish-brown hair falling to her shoulders. She wears a scoop-necked burgundy dress with a matching velvet shawl draped over one shoulder, a double strand of pearls at her throat, and pearl earrings. Her hands are clasped in front of her, fingers laced together, against a mottled greenish-brown backdrop.
Warm flesh tones are set against the cool, streaky ochre-and-olive ground, built up with visible vertical brushstrokes recalling weathered plaster. The wine-red fabric is rendered in loose, confident strokes with deep shadow in the folds, while the face receives smoother, more controlled modeling and soft frontal light. The effect is composed and quietly confident.
