About the piece
Painted in 1882 by Marie Bashkirtseff, this portrait depicts Irma, a model at the Académie Julian in Paris. The work showcases the artist's masterful handling of light and texture, particularly in the delicate rendering of the straw hat and the soft silk of the blue bow, embodying the sophisticated charm of the era.
