About this work

This painting shows two women's heads, one in front of the other. The woman in front is looking straight ahead, while the one behind her is turned to the side. They both have dark hair pulled back and are wearing white tops with red straps. The background is a mix of colors, with some white, green, and brown. There's a window on the left side with a brown frame, and some other objects that are hard to make out. The painting is done in oil paint, which gives it a rich, textured look. If you want to learn more about the artist's technique, you could look up "impasto".
