About this work

A woman sits in a chair, dressed in a dark dress with a high collar. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she looks straight ahead with calm eyes. The background is soft and blurry, keeping focus on her face. The brushstrokes are loose but confident, especially around her shoulders and hands. The artist left some areas rough, like the fabric folds, giving it a lived-in feel. Check out impasto to see how thick paint can create texture like this.
