Over het schilderij

Zorn worked primarily in watercolours during the 1880s. With virtuosity, he portrayed reflections and other light effects in images of everyday situations. The model here is Emma Lamm, who married Zorn in October 1885. The watercolour was painted the same year, quite possibly on their honey-moon, which took the couple via Vienna and Budapest to Constantinople. The viewer is looking up, at an angle, at Emma with the light behind her. The sun shines through her Japanese parasol with its painted decoration.
