Hortense Valpinçon

Edgar Degas, 1883

The image shows a portrait drawing of a woman's head and neck in profile view. The woman faces to the left, revealing her facial features: a defined nose and chin, with a subtle expression on her lips. Her dark hair is tied back in a bun. There are no visible clothes or jewelry. The background is plain. The artist's signature "Degas" is at the bottom left corner of the drawing.
