Portrait of a Woman is a 1863 oil by Ludwig Knaus, a Realism work, held at Hermitage Museum.
This portrait shows a woman's head and shoulders, turned slightly to the left. Her dark hair is pulled back, and she wears a white dress with a ruffled collar. The background is dark, which makes her face and clothing stand out. The painting's use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth. The woman's features are softly rendered, giving her an introspective look. If you're interested in learning more about the artist who created this portrait, you might want to look up Ludwig Knaus.
