About this work

The painting depicts a woman sitting in front of a vibrant backdrop of trees and bushes. She is dressed in a blue hat and a blue coat with a white collar, and her hands are clasped together in her lap. The woman's face is rendered in a more realistic style, while the background is composed of bold, expressive brushstrokes and vivid colors. The overall effect is one of dynamic energy and movement. This painting is part of the collection at the Kunsthaus Zürich.
