Description
English: This painting shows a woman in a black dress seated in an armchair or sofa. The background is dark brown with a brighter section to the left, suggesting a window. The painting is a typical example of Degas' female portraits from this period, which were often given neutral titles that did not mention the name of the model. Degas was one of the Impressionists, but his works and artistic ideals differed somewhat from those of the group in general. He was not, for instance, keen on plein-air painting, and he used a more subdued palette than his colleagues Claude Monet and Berthe Morisot.
Svenska: Målningen visar en kvinna i svart klänning som sitter i en fåtölj eller en soffa. Hon visas från sidan, nästan i profil. Bakgrunden är mörkbrun med ett ljusare parti till vänster, vilken antyder ett fönster. Målningen är karaktäristisk för Degas kvinnoporträtt från den här tiden, vilka ofta gavs neutrala titlar utan modellens namn. Degas var en av impressionisterna, men hans verk och konstnärliga ideal skiljde sig något från den övriga gruppens. Han var till exempel ingen anhängare av friluftsmåleriet och målade med dovare färger än kollegor som Claude Monet och Berthe Morisot.
