A woman in a long dark dress and straw hat stands in a park, holding a light-colored bundle. Her face is calm, and she looks toward the side. A small black dog walks near her feet. Behind her, trees and bushes fill the scene, with bright red flowers on one bush and a stone pedestal holding a green plant. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the scene a textured look. The light falls mostly on the woman’s face and dress, while shadows darken the background. This style is called impasto.
