Femeia dormind (Lectură - Paul et Virginie) is a 1915 unspecified by Nicolae Vermont, depicting Portrait, held at Bucharest Municipality Museum.
This painting depicts a woman reclining on a couch, her head resting on a pink pillow. She is dressed in a purple robe, with her right arm bent and her hand holding a yellow book. The woman's face is relaxed, and her eyes are closed as if she is asleep or lost in thought. The background of the painting is dark, which contrasts with the woman's light-colored clothing. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of serenity and calmness, inviting the viewer to step into the peaceful world of the sleeping woman. The painting's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and dimensionality, drawing the viewer's eye to the woman's face and the book in her hand.
