Valentin Serov portrayed Olga Trubnikova seated by a window in this portrait. Natural light illuminates her face while the room falls into gentle shadow. Serov's ability to capture personality made him Russia's most sought-after portraitist.
The painting combines intimate observation with loose, confident brushwork. This work hangs at the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow.
