#ChiaraVarotari

self-portrait

A painting of a young woman, her body turned to the right of the painting, with her head turned over her right shoulder and her gaze turned to the painting’s left. In her right hand she holds a palette; in her left, she grips a handful of brushes. Multiple vertical cracks testify to the age of the painting.
