About the piece
Painted in 1911 by Edyth Starkie, this evocative oil portrait captures a contemplative woman adorned with a dramatic black veil. The composition is defined by the powerful juxtaposition of the mysterious dark headwear against the rich, saturated tones of her sweeping red skirt, reflecting the artist's masterful use of color and atmospheric light.
