About this work

This is a portrait of a woman, likely a member of a royal family. She has light skin and curly white hair adorned with flowers. Her attire consists of a blue dress with a low neckline, and she wears a white shawl or piece of clothing over her right shoulder. The background of the painting is brown, and the overall style suggests an 18th-century European portrait. The woman's expression is neutral, and her gaze is directed slightly to the right.
