Lady in Brown Evening Dress 1894

"Lady in Brown Evening Dress" is a portrait by Giovanni Boldini, a prominent Italian painter of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Boldini is known for his striking portraits of elegant women, and this painting is a prime example of his signature style. The portrait features a woman in a lavish gown, captured in a dynamic pose, with the artist's characteristic use of loose, expressive brushstrokes and a focus on capturing the ephemeral beauty of the subject. This work, created in 1894, showcases Boldini's ability to capture both the physical form and the personality of his sitters.
