Description
A sister of mercy is shown in uniform.
Cultural Note
As noted by Georgian scholars, Pirosmani described his paintings of women, and the beautiful surroundings like flowers, birds, and white sheets with moral and compassionate terms. Beauties of Ortachala and Ortachali Beauty with a Fan therefore require social context.
