About this work

This painting is a portrait of an older woman. Her hair is pulled back, and she's wearing a white, high-necked top. The background is a mottled mix of grays and browns. The woman's face is the main focus, with visible brushstrokes giving the painting a textured look. Her expression is serious, and her eyes seem to be looking off to the side.
