A young woman leans forward with her chin resting on her hand, a red bloom tucked into her hair and a flowing crimson dress rendered in thick, expressive strokes. Pavel Filin sets her warm reds and pinks against a soft, hazy blue-grey ground, so the palette knife texture of the figure emerges from an almost dissolving background. This original oil painting has a quiet, introspective mood that rewards a second look, and is available now at Art Gallery Teplice.
