This painting shows a woman with light hair tied up, wearing a blue dress and a light shawl. Her face is calm, and she looks straight ahead. The background is dark, making her stand out. The gold frame around the painting is fancy, with a decorative top piece. The artist’s name, *Per Krafft*, is signed at the bottom. If you like this style, look up chiaroscuro next.
