About this work

This painting shows a woman standing sideways. She wears a long skirt and a simple top. Her right arm lifts above her head. Her left arm hangs down. The artist used soft light to shape her body. The colors are pale but warm. The background is plain, so your eyes stay on her. Check out this work at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
