About this work

This painting depicts a woman with her eyes closed, wearing a head covering and a dark robe with a red sash. She holds a small, dark object in her right hand. The woman's face is serene, with a subtle smile. Her head is tilted slightly to the right, and her eyes are cast downward. The background of the painting is a muted brown color, which helps to emphasize the subject's features. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and dimensionality in the painting, drawing the viewer's eye to the woman's face and hands. Look up National Museum in Kraków next.
