About the piece
Painted in 1878 by Karl Gussow, this masterful oil portrait depicts Hedwig Woworsky in a highly detailed silk and lace ensemble. The contrast between her radiant cream-colored dress and the deep, moody background, accented by vibrant azaleas, creates a sophisticated and timeless aesthetic suitable for traditional interiors.
