About this work

This image is a lithograph in black and beige, featuring a woman with a hat and a coat. The woman is shown from the side, with her face turned towards the left. She has a hat on her head and is wearing a long coat that is open, revealing a dress underneath. The woman's face is rendered in a simple, expressive style, with bold lines and minimal details. The background of the image is a solid beige color, which provides a subtle contrast to the darker tones of the woman's clothing. The artist's use of bold lines and simple forms creates a sense of energy and movement in the image. The overall effect is one of quiet intensity, as if the woman is lost in thought.
