About the piece

Painted in 1894 by Santiago Rusiñol, this evocative work is a masterpiece of Catalan Modernism. It captures a woman in a state of morphine-induced stupor, utilizing a stark contrast between the luminous bed linens and the deep, shadowy background to emphasize the figure's vulnerability and create a powerful sense of atmospheric intensity.
