About the piece

Painted in 1895 by Ricardo López Cabrera, this oil on wood masterfully depicts the elegance of late 19th-century travel. The composition highlights the intimate space of a train compartment, rendered with incredible attention to the textures of velvet upholstery, polished woodwork, and period fashion, including the woman's delicate dotted veil.
