Frauenportrait is a 1851 unspecified by Unknown, held at Art Collection of the University Göttingen.
This painting shows a woman in a dark dress with a white collar. Her face is lit from the side, giving her a serious look. The artist used oil paint on canvas, which lets colors blend smoothly. That soft light on her face is called chiaroscuro. It makes her features stand out against the dark background. The collar is so crisp it almost looks real. Try looking up chiaroscuro next.
