This painting shows a woman sitting down, dressed in a light-colored dress with puffed sleeves. Her hair is pulled back, and she wears a small flower in her hair. A necklace and bracelet catch the light, and she rests her hand on her chest. The brushwork is soft, blending her face into the dark background. That flower in her hair looks like a *rosa*—a type of rose. Next, check out Romanticism to see how artists used emotion and detail like this.
