About the piece

Painted in 1885, this work by Jan Toorop is a beautiful example of European Impressionism. The artist uses heavy, textured brushstrokes to depict a woman in a white dress seated in an armchair, surrounded by the soft, diffused light of a quiet interior. The palette is rich with earthy tones and deep shadows, creating a sense of intimacy and timelessness.
