Trei femei bretone

About this work

This painting shows three women sitting close together, their faces serious. They wear dark clothes and white headscarves, with one holding a yellow bundle. The background is blurry, with indistinct shapes and muted colors. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the painting a textured look. The lighting is uneven, with some faces half in shadow. Look up impasto to see how this technique works.
