About this work

This painting presents a woman dressed in 18th-century attire, adorned with a large hat and a dark dress featuring intricate lace details. Her right arm is extended, and she wears a bracelet and a watch on her wrist. The woman's face is turned slightly to her right, with her hair pulled back and a ribbon tied around her neck. The artist has employed a range of colors, including dark shades for the dress and hat, which contrast with the lighter tones of the woman's skin and the lace. The overall effect is one of elegance and refinement. The painting is held at the Uffizi Gallery.
