About this work

The image depicts a woman in a long, white dress with thin straps, adorned with pearls. Her dark hair is styled in an updo, and she wears dangling earrings. The dress features a sweetheart neckline and a flowing skirt. The woman's left arm is bent at the elbow, with her hand near her hip, while her right arm is extended outward. She appears to be standing on a plain surface. A small inscription in the top-right corner reads "Ma griffe." The overall atmosphere of the image is one of elegance and sophistication.
