PORTRAIT 

This portrait of an unknown woman is a work by Icelandic artist Louisa Matthiasdottir. The work, painted in an expressive style, highlights the subject's strong presence through a bold use of color, particularly in her striped sweater. The painting's simplified forms and muted background place an emphasis on the sitter's face and her thoughtful gaze, which is likely a reflection of Matthiasdottir's own artistic focus. The use of broad brushstrokes and a limited palette create a sense of depth and texture, emphasizing the artist's commitment to realism.
