About this work

The painting depicts a woman with curly brown hair, adorned with flowers. She wears an off-the-shoulder blue dress with a white underskirt and a brown shawl draped over her left shoulder. The background is dark, and the woman is framed by an oval border. The woman's dress features a floral pattern along the top, and she has a subtle smile on her face. Her right arm is not visible, but her left arm is covered by the shawl. This portrait is reminiscent of the work of Pierre Mignard I.
