Portret de femeie is a 1876 by Sava Henția, depicting Lace, held at Moldova National Museum Complex.
This painting shows a woman with dark hair pulled back, wearing a black shawl over her shoulders. She has a serious look and a small flower pinned in her hair. The dark background makes her face stand out, and you can see a necklace with a round pendant. The shawl looks like it’s made of lace, and the painting is signed in the corner. It’s framed in a round shape inside a square border. Look up lace to see how it was used in clothing like this.
Sava Henția (1 February 1848, Sebeșel - 21 February 1904, Sebeșel) was an Imperial Austrian-born Romanian painter, decorator and illustrator.
