Beeldbeschrijving
This painting depicts a woman standing in profile, facing the right. She has light skin, dark hair styled in a low bun, rosy cheeks, and pink lips, and she is wearing a white off-the-shoulder blouse and a red skirt. She holds a large woven basket filled with gray-and-orange fish and is resting it on her hip. The background shows a beach-like landscape with a vast blue sky over tan dunes with hints of orange and pink. The brushstrokes in the painting are thick and visible.
