Description   

Morisot was always remarkably free in her distinctive handling of paint, the canvas animated here by vivid, quick touches of color. The sitter was probably a paid model but her frank and direct gaze suggests a friendship between sitter and artist. Morisot's daughter later dated this work to 1885.
