About this work

The painting depicts a woman in a yellow coat and hat, with a matching yellow handbag in her right hand. The woman is standing with her left leg slightly bent, and her left hand is by her side. She is wearing high heels and has short hair. The background of the painting is a solid beige color. The woman's outfit is a bright and cheerful yellow, which stands out against the neutral background. The artist has used bold lines and simple shapes to create a sense of simplicity and elegance. This painting is reminiscent of the work of artist Marie-Louise Carven.
