Seated Woman in White Robe Painting

This item is an oil painting depicting a seated woman. The woman, with dark brown hair styled around her shoulders, is rendered from the waist up, facing to the right and looking slightly downwards. She is clad in a loose, open white robe, revealing her bare upper torso. Her left arm rests casually on what appears to be a reddish-pink or coral-colored cushion or armrest, while her right arm is less visible, possibly placed behind her or along her lap. The background consists of a soft, blended gradient of similar reddish-pink and coral tones, suggesting an indoor setting, perhaps a couch or chaise lounge. The brushstrokes appear relatively soft and fluid, indicating an impressionistic or loose figurative style. The overall color palette is warm, dominated by various shades of pink, red, and muted orange, contrasted with the white of the robe and the skin tones. The painting is housed within a multi-layered frame. The outermost frame is made of a light-colored wood, possibly oak or a natural wood finish, with a slightly textured, possibly linen or burlap-like, inner border. This is followed by a thin, metallic silver-colored fillet, which directly borders the painting. The visible condition suggests some potential wear commensurate with age, particularly on the frame, where slight scuffs or discoloration might be present, though not clearly visible in the provided image. The painting itself appears to be in reasonably good condition with no obvious tears, significant cracking (craquelure), or paint loss visible from the distance of the photograph. The style suggests a mid-20th century to late 20th century aesthetic, possibly from the 1960s or 1970s, given the depiction of the figure and the prevalent color schemes of that era. There are no clear signatures or maker's marks visible in the image to identify the artist or specific manufacturing details.
