About this work

This painting shows a bare woman standing indoors. She has light skin and is looking straight ahead, with her hands resting at her sides. The room behind her has a wooden floor, a dark wooden table with a cloth, and a white door frame to her left. The brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the skin and background a textured look. This style is called *impasto*—paint laid on thickly so you can almost feel the strokes. Look up technique: impasto to see more examples.
