Profil de fată is a 1881 unspecified by Ion Andreescu, a Impressionism work, depicting headscarf, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a woman wearing a loose white headscarf that drapes over her hair and shoulders. Her face is turned slightly away, and she’s dressed in a soft, light-colored dress with a high neckline. The background is a deep, warm brown, keeping focus on her. The artist used soft brushstrokes to blend the light and shadow on her face and clothing. This gives the painting a gentle, almost fuzzy look. Next, check out chiaroscuro to see how artists use light and shadow like this.
