A captivating vertical composition featuring a seated female nude figure at the center. Behind her, a striking pink decoration with floral motifs frames her portrait and bust, making her figure stand out prominently. She is seated on a white cloth, adding texture and enriching the complexity of the piece. The floor, rendered in a dark, burnt sienna, grounds the composition. On the floor, two green apples create a vibrant contrast with the pink background and echo the leaves from the floral motif, adding a sense of unity and intentionality to the work.
