This watercolor painting titled "Female Figure" by Alexandre-Louis Leloir depicts a young woman in a red and black dress sitting among wildflowers. The woman's pose is relaxed and contemplative, with her gaze directed downwards. Leloir was a French artist known for his romantic and idealized portrayals of women, often in natural settings. This piece, created between 1800 and 1900, exemplifies Leloir's style, showcasing the beauty of both the female figure and the natural world. The delicate brushstrokes and soft color palette create a sense of tranquility, making this work a fine example of 19th-century Academic Art.
