100 Days of Art History Jinjins

2/100

Woman in a Purple Coat

This painting may look fairly simple, even childish, but copying it revealed for me how the composition is actually expertly balanced into a pleasing whole.

Checking my post dates, I guess I did this one and the first one on the same day. I must've done this because I started the 100 Day Project late (10 days behind the "official" start date) and was already trying to catch up. I had no idea that I was going to get wayyyyy more behind.

Reference image is from The Museum of Fine Arts Houston, where the painting is now.
