About this work

This painting depicts a woman dressed in a riding outfit, holding a whip in her right hand. She wears a long black coat, a white shirt, and a black bowler hat. Her face is turned slightly to the left, and she gazes directly at the viewer with a serious expression. The woman's attire and the whip she holds suggest that she is prepared for horseback riding. The artist's use of dark colors and bold brushstrokes creates a sense of drama and intensity in the scene. The painting is a striking portrait of a woman in a riding outfit, holding a whip.
