About the piece

Painted by Elemír Halász-Hradil in Paris in 1903, this evocative study captures a model in a moment of quiet contemplation. The composition is a masterclass in tonal contrast, setting the luminous skin tones of the subject's profile against the deep, velvety textures of her voluminous hat and a dark, atmospheric background.
