Visual description:
This loosely painted portrait shows a seated figure against a dark background. She is rendered in translucent reds and pinks, with soft blended edges and visible brushstrokes. Parts of the form are outlined with white highlights. One arm rests across her lap while the other bends at the elbow. Her arms and hair are painted in warm golden tones.
