At The Getty (11)
Manet's painting Portrait of a Woman with a Black Fichu (1878) at the Manet and Modern Beauty exhibit at The Getty in Los Angeles.
Although the sitter's name remains unknown, this portrait is among the most engaging and particular likenesses Manet ever painted. The lower half of the composition, however -- where a few lines of paint barely suggest arms and hands -- reminds us that Manet never finished this picture.
Sign at the Manet and Modern Beauty exhibit.
