Title |
Profile Portrait of a Young Woman Wearing a Lacy Rim Cap |
Description |
This light and whimsical profile portrait by artist Albert Pike Lucas employs simple colors, shades of white for the female's garments and a contrasting dark background. The subject has a light, airy, and almost ghostly appearance. Her face is solemn, with indistinct eyes and a very fair complexion. Her hair and bonnet seem to flow effortlessly in the wind. |
