Dramatic black satin dresses "The Marchesa Casati" in the portrait by Giovanni Boldini. The Marchesa's delicate, white-gloved hand holds a long-legged, sleek black greyhound her on its leash in front of her. This haughty woman stands, leaning on one hip against a rich, wooden wall. She wears an elaborately feathered black satin hat with a dark fur thrown around her neck. Her dress is simply cut, with elbow-length, purple-trimmed sleeves and a high neck. Her smoothly laying, full skirt is made of opulent, heavy black satin and she wears a large purple embellishment like a bouquet at her waist. The Marquesa seems to look flirtatiously at the painter with dark, brown eyes, her brown hair upswept. Beautiful, and full of room for the imagination to write her story, this portrait of "The Marchesa Casati" will make a striking addition to any room.
