Taken as a figure study and not a portrait, her form becomes an abstract series of shapes rising up to a dark curtain of hair falling over her neck in an otherwise monochromatic palette. A soft-focus, flattering light makes the subject's pink skin glow against the dreamy background devoid of context to feel both modern and timeless. Some foxing of the paper, protected by a painted white frame of similar age and condition. Faint signature to the lower right. We believe this item to be in good antique condition considering its age, and any visible signs of wear are captured in the photos.
