Lady with a Harp

The small harp stands to her left: a spiralled column painted with tiny flowers, a gilded neck ending in a scroll, seven strings drawn to the soundbox. She sits half-turned with both hands carried to the strings and her shoulders opened to the viewer. An olive-green overskirt printed with flowers falls back while the pink underskirt comes forward and ends in a pleated flounce at the foot. A pink wrap has slipped from her shoulders, her auburn hair pinned up.
