A full-length figure in a light robe with orange trim, dark hair, walking left
Detailed Description
The artwork is a vertical painting featuring a single standing figure on a plain, light brown background. The figure, positioned slightly right of center, faces towards the left with their head gently bowed. They have long, dark hair that extends down their back, with some strands visible over their shoulders. A small, white, fan-like object is tucked behind their head on the right side. The figure wears a loose-fitting, light tan or off-white robe with wide sleeves. The robe has a prominent orange trim along the collar, down the front opening, and along the bottom hem. Black lines define the edges of the robe and the folds of the fabric. A dark band, possibly a belt or sash, is visible around their waist. The figure's left arm is bent, with a white object, possibly a folded fan or a piece of paper, held near their waist. Their right arm is mostly covered by the voluminous sleeve. The figure's face is pale, with simple black lines for eyes and a small mouth. Their body is angled as if in motion, with their left foot slightly forward and a white slipper visible. The background is a uniform, textured light brown, showing signs of age with subtle discoloration and crackling. The painting is bordered by a narrow reddish-brown strip, which is then surrounded by a wider, textured green border.
