More about Elegant Portrait of a Young Woman in Profile

A detailed and highly realistic oil painting of a young woman in profile facing left against a mottled gray background that transitions subtly into lighter and darker tones. She has fair skin, rosy cheeks, and bright red lipstick. Her dark hair is styled in a bun with loose curls framing her face, and she wears a wide-brimmed straw hat embellished with black and white striped ribbon and three large white fabric roses on the top right side. She is wearing a high-necked white ruffled blouse with delicate lace trim, and a black ribbon tied into a bow at the base of her neck. Her right hand, covered by a white glove, holds a lush bouquet of white lilies with green stems. The painting style is reminiscent of classical portraiture with soft lighting and attention to fabric textures and delicate floral details.
