DESCRIBING A WORK OF ART :)

" GIRL AT THE WINDOW" was painted by Salvador Dalí in 1925.
It is a beautiful and ralistic painting made with oil,  painted with different tones of blue.
The portrait shows a young and lonely woman looking at the window. We can´t see her face, but after lots of studys we know that the girl is Dali´s sister when she was 17 years old.
We can´t appreciate how is her mood , but we can see clearly the empty room and the lanscape she is looking fom the window, the port at the back is in Cadaqués (Gerona).
