Resting Maidens

More about Resting Maidens

A painting shows three women and a partial view of a fourth woman, all with pale skin and reddish hair, resting or sleeping on a long, ornate bench or bed. The women are draped in flowing robes of shades of cream, white, and gold, with some garments appearing to be velvet or silk.

The woman on the far left is sleeping, her head tilted to the side and resting on her arm, which is covered by a cream-colored robe. Her long hair is a reddish-brown, and she is barefoot.

Next to her, the second woman from the left is also sleeping, her head gently laid against the shoulder or chest of the first woman, though her face is angled more towards the viewer. She wears a golden-yellow robe, and her hair is also reddish. Her bare foot is visible, resting on a patterned floor.

The third woman from the left is awake and partially upright, her back supported by the structure behind her. She gazes upwards and to her right, with a serene expression. Her reddish hair is styled away from her face, revealing her delicate features. She wears a golden robe that drapes loosely around her.
