A serene and intimate composition of a figure in an interior setting, executed in oil onto board and dated 1991 by Swedish artist Eric Elfvén (1921–2008), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Jönköping Museum, Borås Art Museum, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

The composition depicts a  nude figure standing beside a bed in what appears to be a bedroom  The figure is viewed from the back, with arms raised as she is getting dressed. Beside her is a chair draped with a striking patterned fabric, and there is a widow in the left background  framing a view of the outdoors.

The colour palette consists of a mix of rich shades including darker forest green and navy blue tones, contrasting harmoniously with lighter shades of yellow and blue.

The brushwork is smooth and gentle, contributing to the quiet mood of the scene.

This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
