Toaleta favoritei is a 1850 unspecified by Theodor Aman, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting shows two women in an indoor setting. The woman in the front is bare-chested, wearing a light-colored dress with a draped shawl, and sits with her hand resting on her chest. Behind her, another woman in a darker dress and head covering leans slightly forward, looking at her. The background is dark and blurry, with a hint of a window or balcony railing. The front woman’s pose and the way her skin is lit against the shadows draw your eye. The artist used soft light to make her form stand out against the darker background. Next, look up *chiaroscuro* to see how this lighting trick works in other paintings.
