About the piece
Painted in 1884 by Finnish artist Amélie Lundahl, this work captures a young woman in Brittany wearing a distinctive white coif and wide collar. She leans against a large terracotta jar, with delicate pink blossoms behind her, showcasing Lundahl's mastery of light and naturalist detail during her time in France.
