Lady Lavery in an Evening Cloak is a 1906 oil by John Lavery, held at National Gallery of Ireland.
This painting depicts a woman in a vibrant red dress, her head turned to the side as she gazes over her shoulder. The dress features a striking pattern of red, orange, and purple hues, complemented by a dark brown shawl draped over her shoulders. Her blonde hair is styled in an elegant updo, and she wears a gold headband. The woman stands in a dimly lit room, with a subtle hint of a table or chair visible behind her. The overall atmosphere of the painting exudes a sense of refinement and sophistication. For more information on the artist's use of chiaroscuro, explore the work of John Lavery.
