Description

Author: Galimbayeva, Aisha. 1917-2008
The female figure is depicted in traditional national costume in a decorative and expressive manner. The figure is depicted in a static, composed pose, with the arms bent and placed in front of the body. Her head is covered with a white kimeshek, softly framing the face and contrasting with the rich colour scheme of the composition. Over her clothing, she wears a richly ornamented chapan with decorative elements on the sleeves and hem. The active combination of red, orange, blue and white tones, together with dense texture and energetic brushwork, enhances the expressiveness of the image and emphasizes the festive character of the work.
