Brief Description

Full-length portrait of a woman in a blue and grey dress, seated, looking forward

Detailed Description

A full-length portrait depicts a woman seated, facing slightly to the viewer's right, with her gaze directed forward. She has an oval face, fair skin, dark eyes, and dark, curly hair styled around her face and shoulders. She wears pearl drop earrings and a pearl necklace. Her dress features a grey, satin-like bodice with a low neckline trimmed with white ruffles, and a vertical row of pearl-like embellishments down the front. White ruffled cuffs are visible at her wrists. A voluminous blue drapery is draped over her shoulders and lap, contrasting with the grey of the bodice and the lighter grey-blue of the skirt. Her hands rest on the blue fabric in her lap. The background is a dark, muted brown, with a reddish-brown drapery visible on the left side. The woman is seated on a raised platform or steps, rendered in a lighter brown tone. At the bottom left, the text "FRANCOISE VILLERS" is visible, and at the bottom right, "DE CREVELANDI" is visible.
