Daughter of Fisherman

Daughter of the Fisherman presents a young woman in traditional dress leaning on a long wooden oar, with a wicker basket at her side and a fishing net visible behind her against a coastal landscape. She wears a white puffed-sleeve blouse, a dark bodice with red lacing, a blue skirt, and a bright yellow headscarf with a red ribbon, while the background shows a sea, shoreline, and trees. The work is executed in Bouguereau’s polished academic style, with smooth, luminous skin tones, meticulous rendering of fabrics, and a carefully controlled light that creates soft contrasts and a classical, idealized realism.
