Portrait of a Woman with a Black Fichu

Édouard Manet

Painted

c. 1878

Collection

Art Institute of Chicago

Medium

Oil on canvas

A woman's face painted around 1878 with strokes as soft as pastel. Between the black shawl and hat and the pale ground, only the eyes and red lips are sharp. Manet was making many quick portraits of Parisian women at the time, more interested in impression than finish.
