Peasant Girl

Berthe Morisot

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a drawing of a person's upper body, from the shoulders up to a little below the waist. The person is seated, slightly turned toward the right. The drawing features facial details such as almond-shaped eyes, a small nose, and full lips. The hair is styled casually, falling around the face and reaching ear length. The person is wearing a simple top or dress with long sleeves, no distinct patterns or embellishments visible. There is no jewelry or accessories present. The background is plain with a light brown color, providing no additional context.
