Description
A dark-haired woman sits with quiet composure in a gilded armchair, her hair parted in the centre and drawn back smoothly, a strand of pearls resting against her throat. She wears a flowing gown of pale champagne satin, its loose folds catching soft highlights across her shoulders and lap, and a dark fur stole is draped over the arm of her chair beside her.
Beside her, a small gilt table holds a round vase overflowing with pink and rose-coloured roses, echoing the warm pink of the wall behind, while a rich olive-green curtain fills most of the background. The brushwork on the satin dress is broad and fluid, built from long sweeping strokes of grey, white, and cream that suggest its sheen without fussy detail.
Held at the Musée du Petit Palais, this portrait is reproduced here as a hand-painted oil reproduction on canvas, capturing its rich fabric and colour by hand, or as an archival giclee canvas print from a high-resolution image. Both are reproductions for your home, not the original work.
