Embers Glow by Theodore Roussel. The image depicts a woman sitting on her knees. She has dark hair tied back. The woman wears a short-sleeved dress with a gathered neckline and short skirt. The woman's head is bowed and her hands are clasped in front of her. The woman's body and dress contrast with a dark reddish-brown background. The background features a draped fabric with folds and creases. The overall color palette is predominantly reddish-brown. The image appears to be a print or drawing with visible texture. The edges of the artwork are rough and uneven.
