This painting "Reading" by José Ferraz de Almeida Júnior, created around 1892, portrays a serene and introspective scene. A young woman is depicted sitting in a chair on a terrace, engrossed in a book. She is elegantly dressed in a long, flowing yellow skirt and a dark jacket over a white blouse, with her long hair cascading down her back. The setting features a beautifully detailed background of a lush landscape with a distant view of buildings and rolling hills under a clear sky. The terrace railing and architectural elements suggest a comfortable, perhaps affluent, setting. The composition captures a peaceful moment of leisure and intellectual engagement, emphasizing the tranquillity and beauty of everyday life.
