About this work

This painting depicts a woman wearing a large, green hat that dominates the composition. Her face is turned slightly to the left, and she is dressed in a blue coat. The background is a mix of colors, including blue, yellow, and orange. The woman's expression is contemplative, and her gaze is directed off to the side. The brushstrokes are visible, giving the painting a textured look. The overall effect is one of quiet introspection. To learn more about the artist's use of chiaroscuro, look up the technique.
