About the piece
This 1755 oil painting by Isak Wacklin depicts Dorothea Maria Losch with a refined, contemplative gaze. The work showcases the artist's skill in rendering tactile contrasts, from the plush white fur collar to the crisp blue necktie against a somber, atmospheric background typical of the Rococo period.
