Portret de femeie

About this work

This painting shows a woman dressed in a light yellow, textured blouse with a dark bow at the neck. She wears dangly earrings and a dark shawl over her shoulders. The background is dark and blurry, with a single yellow flower tucked behind her. The brushwork on her blouse looks almost woven, like the artist paid close attention to fabric texture. Her face is lit softly, while the dark background makes her stand out. If you like this style of lighting, look up chiaroscuro.
