"Pastel Young Girl With Cherries Circa 1880"
Pastel on paper depicting a young girl tasting cherries, executed around 1880. The work is distinguished by its delicate rendering of the face and its great finesse in the treatment of fabrics and colors. The model's lively and natural expression reflects a careful approach, characteristic of female portraits of the late 19th century. This type of pastel is part of the tradition of academic and romantic portraits, where attention to detail and textures reinforces the softness of the composition.
