1889
From the collection of Finnish National Gallery
Mme Weissgerber de Stragewiczin (sittemmin Mme R.Berenger) muotokuva is a 1889 by Albert Edelfelt, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This portrait shows a woman sitting in a chair, looking straight at us. She's dressed in fancy clothes. The woman's face is the focus of the drawing. Her expression is calm and gentle. The pastel colors used in this portrait are soft and delicate. This makes the woman's face look very realistic. To learn more about the artist's use of soft colors, look up the technique: cross-hatching, stippling.
Albert Gustaf Aristides Edelfelt (21 July 1854 – 18 August 1905) was a Finnish painter noted for his naturalistic style and Realist approach to art.
