This painting shows a woman in old-fashioned clothes. She wears a dark hat, a white blouse, a blue skirt, and a red-and-white patterned vest. One hand holds a small object, and the other rests on her hip. The brushstrokes are thick, especially on her sleeves and hat, giving the painting texture. The colors are simple but bright, with the blue and red standing out. Look up impasto next to see how artists use thick paint like this.
