Visual Summary

Brief Description

Two women, one with pearls and flowers, the other holding a framed drawing

Detailed Description

Two women are seated in an interior setting, with a landscape visible on the left and drapery on the right. Both women are shown from the waist up, with dark, curly hair falling to their shoulders. The woman on the left is positioned facing right, with her head turned to look towards the left. She wears an off-the-shoulder gown with a brown bodice and voluminous, shimmering silver-grey satin sleeves and skirt. A string of pearls adorns her neck. Her left hand holds a small, dark green bouquet of flowers, while her right hand is extended forward, pointing slightly to the right. Behind her, a dark, leafy tree stands against a cloudy blue and white sky, with a distant, hazy landscape visible on the horizon. The woman on the right is seated facing left, looking directly forward. She wears an off-the-shoulder gown of shimmering gold satin. A large piece of bright blue drapery is draped over her lap and left arm. Her left hand rests on a small, dark-framed drawing that she holds upright. The drawing depicts a single pink rose with green leaves. Behind her is a deep reddish-brown drapery that fills the background. A dark architectural column separates the two women in the center of the composition.
