About the piece
Painted in 1867, this evocative work depicts Lise Tréhot, Renoir's primary model and companion during the formative years of Impressionism. Captured in a quiet moment of domestic focus, she is shown working on a bright blue cloth, her striped dress and red hair ribbons providing a sophisticated contrast to the soft, atmospheric background.
