About this work

This painting shows a woman with dark hair and a calm face. She’s wearing a white cloth wrapped around her, with blue stars and stripes. A green and blue necklace sits on her chest, and behind her are bright flowers and leaves in pink, blue, and green. The way the light hits her skin and the dark background makes her stand out. The brushstrokes are thick in some spots, giving the painting texture. Look up Nicolae Tonitza next to see more of his work.
