About this work

This painting depicts a woman with shoulder-length hair, wearing a dark sweater, sitting at a table. The table is set with a teapot, cups, and various containers, including a bottle of liquor. The woman's gaze is directed to the left, where a coat hangs on the wall. The scene is rendered in a realistic style, with attention to detail in the textures and folds of the woman's clothing and the objects on the table. The overall atmosphere is one of quiet contemplation, with the woman lost in thought. For more works by this artist, explore the portfolio of Franz Gertsch.
