About this work

The painting depicts a woman with a slender face, dark hair, and a white shirt. She sits with her hands folded in her lap, wearing a black skirt. The background is a muted green wall. The woman's face is elongated, with a subtle, enigmatic expression. Her eyes are cast downward, and her lips are pressed together. The overall mood of the painting is one of quiet contemplation.
