Portrait of Almina Daughter of Asher Wertheimer is a 1908 oil by John Singer Sargent, a Impressionism work, held at Tate Britain.
This painting shows a woman in a white robe with gold accents, holding a stringed instrument. She wears a white headdress with a gold band and a veil that drapes behind her. The woman sits on a low platform with a green and yellow striped cloth. The background is dark, with hints of blue and green. The painting is rich in detail, with intricate patterns on the woman's clothing and the instrument she holds. The woman's expression is calm and introspective, and the overall mood of the painting is one of quiet contemplation.
