Immerse in mid‑century romanticism with this original signed painting by Karin Schaefers. A Japanese woman in a pastel kimono holds a shamisen, set amidst a loosely rendered garden wash. The work exudes tenderness, quiet strength, and painterly elegance.

Soft color blending and fluid brushsweep create a sense of movement in the fabric and foliage, while the subject’s posture and serene complexion suggest introspective narrative. The painting epitomizes Schaefers’ signature approach to delicate, culturally infused portraiture.

Signed “Karin Schaefers”, this work aligns with European figural paintings popular in the 1970s–80s, frequently featuring emotional female figures with gentle, decorative gestures .

The gilt frame showcases carved detail and linen liner, enhancing the overall aesthetic while offering gallery-style readiness. It’s ideal for curated interiors, office spaces, or customer-facing displays.

Whether displayed solo or amidst other vintage works, this painting will captivate with its combination of cultural nuance, romantic atmosphere, and timeless beauty.
