About this work

This painting shows a person sitting on a red chair, their back turned slightly. They’re wrapped in a light-colored cloth, with one arm resting on their lap. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, giving the skin and fabric a textured look. The red chair stands out against the muted background, which looks like a simple room. The artist didn’t smooth out the paint—it’s visibly layered in spots, almost like you can feel the strokes. If you like this rough, textured style, look up impasto.
