Suzanne Valadon

Pierre-Auguste Renoir, ca. 1885

This painting shows a close-up side profile of a young woman facing the right, showing her from the chest up. The woman has a fair complexion, rosy cheeks, and light pink lips. She has red hair styled up in a bun, with short bangs framing her face. She wears a white short-sleeved shirt or dress which hangs off her shoulders, with a hint of dark blue on her chest. The background is an abstract blend of greens, blues, yellows, and oranges without clear objects or scenery. The brushstrokes in the painting are light and feathery, especially those in the background.
