Young Woman with a Muff

Französische Malerei 1740–1787, vers 1750

The image displays a woman depicted from the waist up. She is seated, with her body angled slightly to the left, while her head is turned towards the viewer. Her facial features are soft with a serene expression and her hair is pinned back smoothly. She is wearing a luxurious fur-trimmed shawl over a dress with ornate lace cuffs visible at the wrists. The dress features a greenish-blue patterned fabric. Around her neck, she wears a choker necklace. Her hand rests on a wooden table adorned with intricate carvings, and a rich red drapery is elegantly draped over the table's edge. The background is dark and fades into shadow, focusing attention on the subject and her attire.
