Studiu pentru portret is a 1936 unspecified by Rudolf Schweitzer-Cumpăna, held at Argeș County Museum.
The painting depicts a woman with dark hair, wearing a white scarf or shawl around her neck. Her face is turned slightly to the right, and her expression is neutral. The background of the painting is dark and indistinct, with hints of red and yellow visible behind the woman's head. The woman's features are rendered in loose, expressive brushstrokes, giving the painting a sense of spontaneity and immediacy. Her eyes are cast downward, and her mouth is set in a gentle, enigmatic smile. The overall effect of the painting is one of quiet introspection, as if the woman is lost in thought.
