About the piece

Painted around 1880 by Kornél Spányik, this oil study depicts a young girl dressed in a detailed traditional costume, complete with a striking red bow. The subject’s contemplative expression and the inclusion of a small cross-adorned book suggest a moment of quiet devotion, set against a lush background of foliage.
