About this work

This painting shows a woman sitting on a chair, her body turned slightly to the side. She’s nude except for a small cloth around her waist, and her hair is pulled back. The background is dark and blurry, making her skin look pale and smooth by contrast. The brushstrokes are thick and uneven, giving the skin a textured, almost rough look. This technique makes the figure stand out sharply against the dim background. Check out impasto to see how artists use thick paint like this.
