About this work

This painting shows a woman with dark hair and a serious expression. She’s wearing a dark dress with red and white details, and her hand holds a cigarette. The background is blurry, with hints of a city or buildings in the distance. The artist used bold brushstrokes, especially on her dress and the background, giving it a rough, textured look. Her face is lit softly, while the rest fades into shadow. Next, look up impasto to see how thick paint layers create texture like this.
