This painting shows a woman sitting in a red armchair with her legs crossed. She’s wearing red high heels and a white cloth over her lap. The chair has a patterned cushion, and the background has a red curtain with a dark greenish-blue shape behind her. Her face is smooth and almost mask-like, with simple lines for features. The lighting is soft, making her skin look pale and the chair’s red stand out. Look up chiaroscuro to see how artists use light and shadow like this.
