French School Of The End Of The 19th Century, Young Woman Holding A Face In Her Hand
FRENCH SCHOOL of the late 19th century
Young woman holding a face-to-hand
Drawing in black chalk, highlighted with white chalk.
Wooden frame under glass.
Dimensions: H. 37.5 cm, W. 27 cm
Dimensions with frame: H. 50 cm, W. 39 cm
Tear and folds at the bottom left.
This portrait immerses us in the intimate moment of a young woman busy with her toilet. Her chest carelessly uncovered, she seems absorbed in the reflection of her shadowed face sent back by her face-to-hand.
The artist excels in rendering the interiority of his model, concentrated in a pose made of attention and concentration. Likewise, in a few pencil strokes are skillfully sketched the swirl of her hair pulled back into a bun. White chalk highlights emphasize the ruffles of her dress falling under her bare breast.
