About this work

This painting shows a woman sitting down, dressed in a dark coat and a high, lace collar. Her hair is light brown and pulled back, and she’s holding what looks like a small object in her right hand. The background is plain and dark, making her the only focus. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, especially on her collar and sleeves, giving the painting a textured look. This style is called *impasto*—where paint is laid on thickly so you can almost see the strokes. Next, look up technique: impasto to see more paintings like this.
