About the piece
Created by French painter Jean-Jacques Henner around 1893, this portrait of Saint Fabiola is a definitive example of the artist's signature style. Using a dramatic chiaroscuro technique, Henner allows the subject's copper-toned hair and pale features to glow against an obsidian backdrop, creating a piece that is both grounding and deeply mysterious.
