Portrait of a Woman 1917

Achille Beltrame’s “Portrait of a Woman” from 1917 is a delicate portrayal of a young woman, captured in a moment of quiet contemplation. The subject is dressed in a simple white gown with a blue sash, and her hair is adorned with a golden ribbon. Her gaze is downcast, and her expression is serene. Beltrame’s masterful use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and volume, while his soft pastel strokes give the work a dreamlike quality. This portrait showcases the artist’s talent for capturing the beauty and innocence of the female form, and it is a testament to the power of art to evoke emotion and create a lasting impression.
