Head of a Woman is an unspecified by Unknown, held at Philadelphia Museum of Art.
This painting is a portrait of a woman's head, depicted in a soft, dreamy light. Her wavy hair frames her face, and her eyes are cast downward, giving her an introspective appearance. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and volume in the subject's face, drawing the viewer's eye to her features. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation, as if the woman is lost in thought.
