The painting depicts an elegant lady, gracefully posing, delicately holding an open fan in her hands. Her dress is a deep green, richly decorated with white lace that elegantly intertwines along the edges of the sleeves. The fabric of the dress almost seems to move under the play of light and shadow, typical of the Impressionist style, with rapid, fleeting brushstrokes creating a vibrant effect of light. The lady is enveloped in an aura of delicacy and refinement, yet the overall atmosphere conveys a sense of lightness, as if time had stopped in a moment of serenity.
In the background, nature blends into a nuanced landscape: trees and flowers are depicted in soft shades of green and yellow, with light filtering through the foliage in a play of reflections that seem to dance across the canvas, lending the work a dreamlike, intimate feel. The contrast between the figure of the lady and the surrounding nature enhances the sense of timeless elegance and the fusion of human and natural beauty, typical of the Impressionist aesthetic of the late 19th century.
