This painting shows a person sitting by a window, reading a book. Their hair is dark, pulled back, and they’re wearing a light blue dress with a white collar. The book is open on their lap, and they’re resting their chin on one hand. Outside the window, there’s a building with a greenish roof. The brushstrokes are thick and loose, giving the painting a soft, textured look. The light comes mostly from the left side, lighting up the person’s face and hands. If you like this style, look up *impasto* next.
