About this work

This portrait is of a woman in a dress with a large bow at the neck and a hat with a veil. The background is a landscape with trees and bushes. The woman is sitting in profile, facing left, and her face is turned slightly towards the viewer. She has a gentle expression on her face. The artist has used charcoal and pastel to create a soft, delicate effect. The portrait is a beautiful example of Romanticism, a movement that emphasized emotion and individualism.
