Old Woman with a Muff

Französische Malerei 1740–1787, segunda mitad del siglo XVIII

This painting shows a seated elderly woman from the waist up. She faces us with a neutral expression. She has a fair complexion with visible wrinkles, rosy cheeks, and pink lips. Her hair is mostly covered by a white lace cap and a black headscarf. She wears a patterned reddish-brown garment with lace around the collar and sleeves, and her hands rest on a brown fur muff. The background is a dark gray-brown color with visible brushstrokes.
