About this work

This painting depicts a woman reclining on a red and white patterned cushion, with her head resting on her right arm. She is dressed in a white outfit with a green top and has a white head covering. In front of her, a vase with red and blue flowers sits on the floor. To the right, another woman sits on a red cushion, wearing a red skirt and a blue necklace, holding a violin and bow. The scene is set against a backdrop of a window with a view of the sea and a blue sky with clouds. The overall atmosphere is one of relaxation and leisure.
