DescriptionThis is a pastel of a woman standing in a medieval italinate interior. She is wearing a dark pink dress with a blue garment thrown over. Her right breast is visible. Her hair is red and stretches down her back. Behind her body is a green curtain and just at head height is a window, through which can be seen a mountainous landscape. The woman's features are typical of the Pre-Raphaelite style.
