Starsza pani z fiołkami is a 1898 oil by József Rippl-Rónai, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Hungarian National Gallery.
The painting depicts a woman standing in front of a wall, wearing a long dress with a large collar and a hat adorned with a flower. Her hands are clasped together in front of her, holding a small object. The background is a muted brown color, which contrasts with the woman's dark clothing. The woman's facial expression is somber, and her posture suggests a sense of contemplation. The overall mood of the painting is subdued, with a focus on the woman's quiet introspection. The artist's use of muted colors and subtle lighting creates a sense of intimacy and calmness, drawing the viewer's attention to the woman's gentle demeanor.
