More about this artwork

Alfred Stevens, a Belgian painter known for his sophisticated portrayal of women, presents a thoughtful composition in his painting titled "Chez soi." The painting captures a moment of tranquil introspection and domestic elegance. In it, a young woman is seated on a plush red velvet sofa by a large window, overlooking a bustling Parisian scene. The contrast between the serene interior space and the vibrant outdoor activity enhances the introspective mood of the figure.Dressed in a flowing white gown cinched with a russet belt, the subject holds a fan loosely in her hands, suggesting a moment of rest or contemplation. Her gaze directed outside the window, she appears to be lost in thought, perhaps musing over the events of the day or enjoying the distant view. The inclusion of fine details, like the decorative fan, the texture of her dress, and the verdant trees outside, adds depth to the painting.The interior is adorned with artworks, providing a glimpse into the cultured environment of the subject. The painting on the wall juxtaposed with the recreational scene outside the window also subtly hints at the dual themes of art and life — the personal and the public spheres.
