About this work

The painting depicts a woman in a long coat with a pattern of brown, blue, and white shapes. She is wearing a hat and gloves, and her face is partially obscured by the brim of the hat. The woman's body is facing forward, but her head is turned slightly to the side. The woman's coat is the central focus of the painting, with its intricate pattern and flowing lines drawing the viewer's eye. The artist has used a range of colors and textures to create a sense of depth and dimensionality in the image. This painting is reminiscent of the work of artist Marie-Louise Carven.
