Sitzende Frau

Französische Malerei 1873–1880, 1880–1885

The artwork depicts a seated woman, shown from the side, with most of her body visible. She is sitting on a simple wooden stool. Her face is slightly turned downwards, focusing on a book that she holds in her lap. The woman's facial features are softly rendered, with her hair covered by a dark headscarf. She is wearing a dark dress with long sleeves and a white apron that covers her lap. The background is a muted, dark brown, providing a stark contrast to the woman's lighter clothing.
