Young Woman in a Straw Hat 1877

Pierre-Auguste Renoir's "Young Woman in a Straw Hat" (1877) is a portrait of a young woman, likely one of the artist's models, dressed in a simple black jacket with a white collar, her face partially obscured by a wide straw hat. The portrait is painted in Renoir's characteristic Impressionist style, with loose brushstrokes and a focus on capturing the fleeting effects of light. The pastel tones and delicate brushwork create a sense of softness and intimacy, highlighting the beauty of the sitter and the light that illuminates her face.
