A woman with light hair sits in a dark dress. She looks straight at you. This painting is a copy of a portrait of Jenny Lind, a famous singer from the 1800s. The original is in London. We don’t know who made this copy. It was not meant to be art for a wall. It was made for study. The museum used it to learn about old painting styles. Look up the museum: Museum of Ethnography.
