Alice Gamby En Buste 1890

"Alice Gamby En Buste" (1890) is a portrait by Berthe Morisot, depicting a young woman with a soft, delicate expression. Morisot, a leading Impressionist painter, was known for her intimate and naturalistic portrayals of women. The painting captures a fleeting moment of Alice Gamby's presence, with loose brushstrokes and a muted color palette, suggestive of the Impressionist style. The background, with its suggestion of foliage, creates a sense of depth and adds a touch of Impressionist light.
