This painting shows a blurry figure wrapped in a red shawl with a yellow headscarf. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, making the colors—reds, yellows, and dark browns—look messy and textured. The face is barely visible, lost in the swirls of paint. The thick paint layers suggest the artist used a technique called *impasto*, where paint is laid on so heavily it stands out. This makes the surface almost feel three-dimensional. Look up technique: impasto to see more examples of this bold, textured style.
