About the piece

Created in 1914 by artist Mina Arndt, this oil painting is a masterful study in contrast and color. The subject is depicted in a sophisticated black ensemble, allowing the brilliant red of her hat to serve as a dramatic focal point. The visible brushwork and muted background lend the piece a modern, atmospheric quality that remains timeless.
