About this work

This painting depicts a woman sitting on the ground, surrounded by lush foliage and trees. She is nude, with a cloth draped over her lap, and her right arm is outstretched. The woman's hair is long and curly, and she has a serene expression on her face. The painting is rendered in a chiaroscuro style, with strong contrasts between light and dark. The woman's body is illuminated, while the surrounding foliage is cast in shadow. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation. The painting is a beautiful example of Renaissance art, and it is held in the collection of the National Gallery of Art, Washington.
