Description
Seen almost from behind, a young woman with auburn hair pinned up and tied with a black ribbon rests her chin lightly against her fingers, her gaze turned toward a leafy background of blue-green foliage dappled with light. She wears a black jacket with a white collar and a small touch of red at the throat, her profile softly lit against the dense screen of leaves behind her. Painted around 1875 and now in the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, the picture captures an unguarded, thoughtful moment, with Renoir’s brush dissolving the garden behind her into loose patches of color.
This reflective portrait is reproduced here as a museum-quality wall-art print, offered on canvas or fine-art paper and made to order in the size and finish that suit your room.
