About this work

This is a black-and-white portrait of a woman dressed in fancy 1800s clothes. She wears a high-necked dress with puffed sleeves and a flower crown on her head. The sketch is detailed, showing the soft folds of her skirt and the delicate lace on her collar. The name "Clara Novello" is written below her, and the print was made in London in 1852. The artist’s signature is faint in the corner. Next, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see this portrait in person.
