About this work

This portrait shows a woman's face in detail. She has a gentle expression and elegant clothing. The artist used a small format, which was unusual for portraits at that time. The artist's use of mezzotint and engraving techniques created a lot of texture and depth in the image. Check out the work of artist: Saint-Mémin, Charles B. J. Févret de.
