The composition is a study in contrasts. The smooth, pale skin of the subject is dramatically set against the vibrant red of the couch and the cool, muted green of the background. A cascade of golden fabric adds another layer of texture and color, a visual feast for the eyes. The pose, a figure seen from behind, resting languidly, evokes a sense of intimacy and privacy, inviting the viewer to observe a moment of stillness. The artist's use of light and shadow further enhances the form, sculpting the body with subtle gradations, making the skin appear almost luminous against the rich, saturated hues.
