This painting shows a woman in a bright pink dress sitting on a blue chair. She has dark hair and a calm face, wearing a black belt. Behind her, a dark, wiry dog sits on the floor, looking alert. The woman’s dress has a simple collar and buttons, while the dog’s fur is short and glossy. The background is a plain, muted color that keeps focus on them. Next, check out the technique: chiaroscuro to see how light and shadow create depth.
