The artwork titled “Pippa,” created by John Everett Millais, is an oil painting belonging to the Realism art movement and falls under the genre of portrait.
In the artwork, a young woman is depicted in a serene and contemplative pose, her head gently tilted to the side. She is adorned in traditional attire, characterized by a colorful blouse with billowing sleeves and a patterned shawl draped over her shoulders. A delicate lace headpiece crowns her curly hair. The woman gazes downward with an introspective expression, her hands resting gently in her lap. The use of rich, warm tones and intricate details in her clothing and jewelry exemplifies the realistic style for which Millais is known. The background is dark and unobtrusive, allowing the subject to remain the focal point of the piece.
