About the piece

Painted in 1906 by Peruvian artist Daniel Hernández Morillo, this masterful work captures a moment of luxurious rest. The artist showcases technical prowess through the contrasting textures of soft skin, heavy crimson velvet, and diaphanous white silk, all set against a backdrop of atmospheric cool tones.
