Dulcinea del Toboso

Célestin Nanteuil

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a woman holding a large circular sieve in a crouching position. She has curly dark hair, expressive eyes, and a small mouth. She is wearing a skirt and an off-the-shoulder blouse with puffed sleeves, along with simple earrings. Several chickens peck around her in a rustic setting with a textured wall and visible pottery.
