Woman in White 1920

"Woman in White" is a 1920 oil painting by American artist Arthur Beecher Carles, known for his distinctive modernist style. Carles often depicted figures in intimate settings, using bold colors and loose brushstrokes to capture a sense of mood and emotion. This particular work features a woman, clad in a white garment, seated against a vibrant red background, which creates a striking contrast of colors. The woman's introspective pose and the nuanced brushwork lend the painting an air of melancholy and contemplation.
