Incense

Percival De Luce

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white drawing of a woman sitting on the floor, wearing a long white dress, with her hair up. She sits on a patterned tile floor with her knees bent up and to the side. Her hands are clasped around her knees. A small table with a footstool or low chair is to her right. A tall, ornate incense burner emitting smoke stands to her left. A curtain with tied drapes hangs behind her and to her right is a fluted column. The image is framed in white.
