About this work

This is a round portrait of a woman with a serious expression. She wears a dark dress with lace trim on the collar and cuffs, and a flowery headpiece. The background is plain, letting her face stand out clearly. Her clothing looks old-fashioned, suggesting this might be from a long time ago. The artist used soft colors and careful lines to show her features. Next, check out Lindh, Johan Erik to see more of his work.
