La Berceuse

A woman in a green dress and green skirt sits in a wooden chair against a dense wall of stylized flowers and swirling green vines, her hands folded in her lap over a dangling rope. The red floor and painted lettering on the chair arm frame the figure, and bold, directional oil brushstrokes give the surface a textured, rhythmic energy.
