About this work

This painting shows a woman dressed in gold and white, seated against a dark blue border. She wears a headscarf, necklaces, and earrings, and holds something small in her hand. The background is a repeating pattern of green leaves and flowers, framing her portrait like a window. Her face is calm, with soft shading around the eyes and lips. The colors are rich but muted, and the details in her jewelry stand out sharply against her clothing. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
