About the piece
Painted in 1867 by Alfred Stevens, this work captures a moment of domestic elegance and quietude. A woman in a shimmering grey gown and delicate black shawl pauses beside a table draped in an ornate textile, her gaze fixed upon a large, textured bouquet of autumn flowers held in a pale blue vase. The deep, moody background emphasizes the luminous quality of her skin and the intricate, painterly details of her attire.
