About the Item

Work on canvas Golden wooden frame 81 x 68 x 3 cm Woman with a chef's hat This striking portrait, typical of Expressionism, depicts a woman in an introspective pose. Vigorous brushstrokes and dark hues accentuate the emotional intensity of the subject. The color palette, dominated by earthy browns and reds, lends the work a mysterious, dramatic atmosphere. The central figure is framed by a stylized chair, adding structural depth to the composition. The woman's piercing gaze, clad in a coat featuring contrasting textures, evokes intense inner reflection. This painting stands out for its ability to capture the psychological essence of its subject, leaving the viewer with a presence that is both enigmatic and arresting. A quiet strength emerges, making this work memorable and deeply captivating.
