Visual Summary

Brief Description

A woman in a blue dress and bonnet sits in a wicker chair, with a seascape and foliage behind her

Detailed Description

A woman is seated in a wicker chair, positioned slightly to the right of the canvas's center, looking directly forward. She wears a dark blue dress with long sleeves, featuring white lace cuffs and a prominent white ruffled collar or scarf around her neck. A dark blue bonnet with white lace trim covers her brown hair. Her face is fair with rosy cheeks and blue eyes, and her lips are closed. Her hands rest in her lap, holding a small, light-colored object, possibly a fan or a piece of lace. The wicker chair is a light yellowish-brown with visible woven patterns. To the woman's left, the background consists of loosely painted green and reddish-brown foliage, appearing to be a garden or natural setting. To her right and behind her, a seascape unfolds. A tall, grey-blue cliff face rises behind her head, separating the foliage from the open water. The sea is rendered in shades of greenish-blue, with visible brushstrokes suggesting movement. On the distant horizon, a light yellow-white landmass or cliff line is visible under a pale blue sky. Several small white sailboats dot the water in the middle distance. The scene appears to be outdoors with soft, diffused light.
