A painting of a woman holding a basket of flowers.
A painting of a woman with long dark hair is wearing a blue scarf around her neck and a blue hat. She is holding a basket of flowers in one hand and a stick in the other hand. The woman has her eyes closed and her head is tilted back as if she is sleeping. Behind her is a body of water with waves crashing against the shore. There is a city in the distance. The sky is filled with dark clouds.
