About this work

This print shows a woman in a simple portrait. The artist used fine lines to capture her face and upper body. It mixes soft details with clear edges. The portrait is of Mrs. Billington, a singer from the 1800s. The print dates to 1863, right when Impressionism and Realism were gaining attention.
