About the piece

Painted in 1909, this masterpiece by William Glackens reflects the artist's fascination with the lush palettes of French Impressionism. The composition is a sophisticated play of contrasts, setting the luminous skin tones of the figure against a vibrant crimson sofa and a cool, patterned background, creating a work that is both grounded and strikingly bold.
