About this work

The image depicts a woman in a white dress with a blue pattern, standing with her left leg slightly bent. She wears long white gloves and has short brown hair. The dress features a high neckline and a full skirt. The woman's pose and attire suggest a formal or elegant setting, possibly from the mid-20th century. The artist's use of simple lines and minimal shading creates a clean and understated visual style. This piece reminds me of the work of artist Marie-Louise Carven.
