The use of lighting in the painting highlights her facial features and the texture of her clothing, adding depth and realism to her portrayal.The background, while simplistic with its soft, neutral tones, complements the subject effectively, ensuring that the viewer's focus remains on Ella. This balance between the subject and the background further enhances the emotional gravity of the painting.Nikolai Triik, known for his contributions to Estonian art, employs a blend of realism and impressionism in this work, demonstrating his skill in color manipulation and composition.
