Femme debout près d’un arbre

Pierre-Auguste Renoir, 1866

This painting shows a woman standing, her left arm raised to her chest. She has dark hair in an updo and adorned with a white accessory, and wears a dress in shades of blue, white, and tan. She has a black necklace around her neck. Her face is partially in shadow, and no distinct features are visible. She has pale skin. The background is green with a hint of blue at the top left corner, and the beige canvas is visible around the edges. The brushstrokes in the painting are thick and visible, giving the scene a blurred effect and a sense of motion.
