Description: | A mythological scene, where a naked woman is seated on a rocky outcrop on the coast, looking out across a calm, dark sea. She sits on red and white drapery, with her back to the viewer, her dark hair pinned up on her head and decorated with red braiding. She holds a mirror in her right hand, level with her shoulder, and a coral necklace in her other hand, which she picks up from a group of trinkets at her side. The rocky coastline is visible in the background.
Technique: oil on canvas
