Portrait of a Woman is a 1854 by Isidore Pils, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This portrait depicts a woman in a dark dress, her hands clasped together in front of her. The woman's hair is pulled back, and she wears a white collar. Her face is turned slightly to the right, and her expression is neutral. The woman's dark dress is adorned with a ruffle at the neckline and a fringed shawl draped over her arms. The background of the portrait is a solid color, which helps to focus attention on the subject. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and volume in the portrait.
