About this work

This image is a lithograph print of a woman in a long dress, sitting in a room with a bed and a curtain. The woman is wearing a long-sleeved dress with a high neckline and a full skirt, and she has her hands clasped together in front of her. She is sitting on a chair or stool, with her feet flat on the floor. The room is dimly lit, with a bed in the background and a curtain hanging from the ceiling. The curtain is partially open, revealing a sliver of light coming from outside. The overall atmosphere of the image is one of quiet contemplation, with the woman lost in thought. The image is a lithograph print, created by Ernst Barlach in 1910-11 and published in 1912. It is held at The Museum of Modern Art.
