Deshabille

Childe Hassam

National Gallery of Art

The image displays a seated person in a large, cushioned armchair. The person reclines comfortably with their head against the chair's backrest. They have long, dark hair, soft facial features, and wear a loose, robe-like garment. Their legs are crossed with dark stockings or boots. The person's hands hold a piece of paper or a small book. The armchair has a patterned fabric design and scattered papers around it. The background features vertical lines hinting at a wall or curtain. The overall ambiance is calm and informal.
