Young Girl with an Apron

Berthe Morisot, 1891

This painting displays a young girl sitting, her head and body slightly turned to the left. She has fair skin and light reddish-brown hair tied back with a blue ribbon, a few curls framing her face. She has a pointed chin, pale eyebrows, and small red lips in a neutral expression. She wears a dark blue dress with a white apron, and her hands are on her lap, inside pockets on the front of the apron. In the background, there is a room with a small brown table holding a vase of pink and white flowers. The wall is a light pink and cream color, and the floor is blue green. There is a darker section in the upper right that suggests a door or hallway. The brushstrokes in the painting are thick and visible, giving the background a blurred appearance.
