About this work

This painting shows a woman in a plain white blouse holding an orange. The woman’s face is calm, almost gentle. The orange stands out against her light clothes, drawing your eye right away. Luchian painted this in Romania around the early 1900s. He often used bright colors and simple subjects like this. The brushwork looks loose but full of life. If you like this, look up the Museum of Ethnography where it hangs.
