Adrien Moreau | Contemplation, 1873
The solitary woman in Moreau's painting gazes down toward a duck pond.
Her contemplative expression -and the painting's title- suggest that she has chosen this isolated spot to be alone with her thoughts.
The woman's fashionable city clothes have been painted with a degree of detail that contrasts with the more textured brushstrokes used to describe the surrounding landscape. | Source: © Clark Art Institute
