The artwork titled “Woman in a Pink Hat” was created by Maurice de Vlaminck around the year 1911. This piece, rendered in oil on canvas, belongs to the Post-Impressionism movement and measures 55 by 46.5 centimeters. It is a portrait genre held in a private collection.
The artwork portrays a woman wearing a prominent pink hat against a muted background, highlighting her serene and contemplative expression. The artist’s choice of a broad, dark hat with a delicate pink trim frames the subject’s face, bringing focus to her facial features. The brushwork, characteristic of Post-Impressionism, is expressive and somewhat abstract, leaving the background nebulous to enhance the central figure. The woman’s attire, with a white collar and magenta hints, contrasts subtly with the darker shades surrounding her, creating a harmonious yet striking composition that reflects the nuances of the human form and emotion.
