Dark-Haired Woman 1903

"Dark-Haired Woman" (1903) by Pierre-Auguste Renoir depicts a woman in profile, her face turned slightly downwards. The subject's back and shoulder are visible, with the faintest hint of her breast, as she is partially draped in a white cloth. Renoir, a leading Impressionist painter, captures the softness of the woman's features and the fluidity of her pose through loose brushstrokes and a palette of warm, pastel hues. The painting exemplifies Renoir's later artistic style, characterized by a more refined approach to Impressionism.
