This painting shows a woman sitting in a chair, holding an open book in one hand. She wears a tall, decorated hat with feathers and a white headscarf underneath. Her dress is light blue with a white lace collar and a red belt tied around her waist. The artist used soft colors and gentle shading to make her face and clothes look smooth. The background is plain, so the focus stays on her. Look up Mayer, Luigi next to see more of his work.
