About this work

In this painting, a woman stands in a garden surrounded by roses. She wears a white dress with blue accents and holds a parasol. The woman's face is turned to the left, and she appears to be smelling the flowers. The garden is lush and green, with trees and bushes in the background. The woman's dress is intricately detailed, with ruffles and folds that catch the light. The overall effect is one of serenity and beauty. This painting is a great example of the work of Auguste Toulmouche, a French artist known for his portraits and landscapes.
