"Girl in Front of a Mirror" is a 1922 pastel drawing by Dutch artist Isaac Israels, known for his Impressionistic style and focus on everyday life. This work captures a moment of introspection as a woman admires her reflection in a mirror, her elegant figure and stylish hat highlighted by the soft, ethereal strokes of pastel. The composition, focused on the interaction between subject and mirror, creates a sense of intimacy and invites viewers to ponder the complexities of self-perception.
