La Rieuse: Madame Albert Besnard

Edmond Aman-Jean

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a woman in a three-quarter profile, looking over her shoulder towards the viewer. Her hair is dark and wavy, blending into the background. She wears a large hat with an orange floral embellishment and a dark wrap around her shoulders. Her face is softly rendered with delicate features and a gentle smile, partially obscured by her hand near her chin. The background is a textured surface in muted tones.
