Portretul Elenei Negri is a 1847 by Constantin Daniel Rosenthal, a Romanticism work, depicting Rosa, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a woman sitting in a room. She's dressed in old-fashioned clothes. The woman in the painting is Elena Negri, and what's interesting is that the artist made this print in 1847, which was a time when prints were becoming more popular. The artist likely chose to depict Elena Negri in a simple setting to focus on her expression. This was a common approach in portraits from that time. You can learn more about this style by looking at the work of artist Rosenthal, Constantin Daniel.
Constantin Daniel Rosenthal (b.Rosenthal Konstantin, 1820 – July 23, 1851) was a painter and sculptor of Austrian birth and a Romanian 1848 revolutionary, best known for his portraits and his choice of Romanian Romantic nationalist subjects.
