About this work

The painting depicts a person with a feline head, wearing a long dress and a cross necklace. The subject's face is that of a cat, while the rest of the body appears human. The dress is long-sleeved and has a high neckline, with a cross hanging from the neck. The background of the painting is dark, which contrasts with the subject's light-colored clothing. The overall effect is one of mystery and intrigue, as the viewer is left to wonder about the identity and significance of the subject. This painting is part of the collection at the Kunsthistorisches Museum.
