Medallion of Woman's Head: Flora is a 1850 by Unknown 19th Century, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a small, faded drawing of a woman’s face framed like a coin. Her hair is curly, and she wears a leafy crown. The background is mostly blank, with a few brown spots where the paper is worn. The image looks like a copy of an older sculpture or coin. It’s simple but has a soft, dreamy look. If you like this, check out Romanticism next.
