Description: | An unknown woman is depicted sitting outdoors looking out at the viewer. The woman is dressed in a costume of reds and gold. It has been debated whether this costume is Turkish or Neapolitan in style. However, it seems most probable that the costume is Turkish, reflecting the interest in orientalism that was developing in the eighteenth century. | Subjects: | portrait; figure; landscape; buildings and gardens | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Kauffmann, Angelica (Swiss painter and printmaker, 1741-1807) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8898... | Go to resource |
