About the piece
Painted in 1894 by George Hendrik Breitner, this evocative oil painting is a cornerstone of Dutch Japonisme. The model, Geesje Kwak, is depicted in a luxurious white kimono with delicate floral embroidery, her pale figure creating a luminous contrast against the moody, dark-toned interior and patterned textiles.
