Painting description

In the painting we see a figure sitting with her back to us on a bed, looking into a mirror. The color palette is subdued, dominated by browns and warm, dark shades of red. The figure has long, dark hair that contrasts with her fair skin. The composition centers on the relationship between the figure and her reflection, which seems almost unreal, as if from another world. An atmosphere of mystery and subtle dread hangs in the air. It feels as though time has stood still. The style of the painting is expressive, with visible brushstrokes that lend it dynamism. The artist uses techniques that emphasize the play of light and shadow, creating deep contrasts. Looking at the painting, one can feel unease, but also fascination with what is hidden. A child seeing it might say: "And why is she looking at herself there?" The painting encourages reflection on the nature of identity and perception. It may symbolize a search for the self. When I look at this painting, I feel a slight shiver and at the same time I admire the genius of its execution. Is it real or just a dream? Every detail seems to tell its own story.
