About this work

This painting depicts a woman wearing a red cloak and a head covering, holding a cross in her right hand. She is shown in a three-quarter view, with her body facing forward and her head turned slightly to the side. The background of the painting is a light beige color, with some darker shading around the edges. The woman's clothing and the cross she holds suggest that the painting is religious in nature. The style of the painting is simple and straightforward, with bold lines and minimal detail. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation and reverence. The painting is held at the Museum of Ethnography.
