About the piece
Painted in 1870, this soulful portrait by Frédéric Bazille depicts a young woman in a striped headwrap surrounded by a lush abundance of flowers. The work showcases Bazille's masterful handle of light and color, particularly in the creamy whites of the peonies and the warm tones of the sitter's skin, making it a powerful piece of 19th-century French art.
