About this work

This painting shows a woman’s arm and torso draped in a flowing veil. Her skin is smooth, and the fabric clings lightly to her body. Below her, a rocky landscape fades into a dark sky, with a few pink roses near the bottom. The way light hits her arm makes the skin look almost three-dimensional. The veil’s soft folds contrast with the rough landscape behind her. If you like how light and shadow work here, look up *chiaroscuro*.
