A Rose

Thomas Anshutz

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

A woman sits in a chair, wearing a long pink dress with puffy sleeves, a white lace collar, and gold embellishments. Her dark hair is pulled back, with a gold hairpiece on top. She rests her left elbow on the chair's armrest, with her hand near her face. The chair is dark wood with a curved back. The woman sits on a patterned rug with shades of red, blue, and beige. Behind her is a dark wood piece of furniture, possibly a dresser or cabinet, with a red cloth draped over it and a red flower on top. The background is dark. The painting's title is "A Rose" by Thomas Anshutz.
