James Jacques Joseph Tissot

The image shows a woman reclining on a lounge chair. Her body is turned sideways with her head resting against the chair. She has her eyes closed and wavy hair framing her face. She is dressed in a long-sleeved garment with lace details and a scarf around her neck. A corsage with a flower is pinned to her chest. The background shows an outdoor setting with a water body and tree shadows.
