Description
A young woman with dark hair and dark eyes looks directly out at the viewer beneath an elaborate wide-brimmed hat, a capeline piled with a large yellow fabric bow, a pink rose, and touches of green foliage, its underside trimmed in white lace. Around her neck a soft white ruffled bow sits at the collar of a plain cream-colored coat, and her cheeks are touched with pink against pale skin. Behind her a loosely brushed field of dark and olive greens fills the whole background, suggesting an outdoor garden setting.
The hat’s bold yellow and pink dominate the canvas, painted with thick, confident strokes that contrast with the smoother, softer modeling of the young woman’s face, drawing immediate attention to the elaborate millinery framing her.
This portrait is offered as a hand-painted oil reproduction or as an archival canvas print, made to order in sizes that keep the proportions of the original 55.2 x 46.4 cm canvas, drawn from the version held by the Barnes Foundation.
