Lectură is an unspecified by Jules Adolphe Aimé Louis Breton, depicting Reading, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
A woman in a bright pink dress sits on a chair, holding a small book open in her hands. The room around her is dim, with dark wood furniture and shelves packed with books. A red armchair sits nearby, and a small dog lies on the floor, half-hidden by a cloth. Notice how the light hits her face, making it stand out against the shadows. The brushstrokes on her dress are thick, almost textured. Look up impasto next to see how artists use thick paint like this.
Jules Breton painted quiet scenes of rural life, often showing women reading or working in fields.
