About the piece
This 1794 portrait by artist Felix Maria Diogg captures the dignified presence of Anna Zellweger-Hirzel. The subject's warm expression is framed by the intricate lace of her bonnet and a rich fur collar, rendered with masterful attention to texture and light against a dark, atmospheric background that emphasizes the subject's character.
