About this work

A woman in a dark dress sits sideways on a chair, one arm resting on the back. Her face is just a quick sketch—no eyes, no mouth—yet her pose feels alive. This is a study, not a finished portrait. The artist copied Giovanni Boldini’s loose, fast style, using quick brushstrokes to catch movement instead of details. The Museum of Ethnography doesn’t usually show sketches like this, so it stands out. Look up Giovanni Boldini next.
