Figure drapée couchée

James McNeill Whistler, 1892

The image shows a person reclined on a sofa or bed. They are positioned with their body slightly propped up against the backrest, legs bent at the knees. Their head rests against a pillow or cushion, and they have short, curly hair. The person is wearing a loose-fitting light-colored garment and holds a small polka-dot pillow or fabric in their hand. The background features minimalistic details of a wall and indistinct shapes, with a focus on the person and a couple of pillows.
