About the piece
Created in 1906 by American artist Thomas Pollock Anshutz, this masterful pastel on canvas captures a seated woman in profile. Her flowered gown and soft, voluminous hairstyle exemplify Edwardian grace, while the artist's rich use of light and shadow creates a contemplative, moody atmosphere perfect for traditional interiors.
