The composition portrays the figure reclining gracefully amongst cascading white linens and sumptuous burgundy drapery, surrounded by decorative cushions, flowers and furnishings. A framed nude study appears within the composition itself, creating an engaging picture-within-a-picture effect and reinforcing the work’s romantic salon-inspired character. Executed in a soft, painterly manner, the artist combines delicate flesh tones with expressive passages of mauve, pink, burgundy and white. The detailed treatment of fabrics and surrounding objects creates a luxurious atmosphere while keeping the reclining figure as the central focus.

Presented under glass with a substantial multi-line mount and coordinating gilt and pink-toned frame, it is ready for display.
