About the piece

This elegant 18th-century portrait captures a young woman at the height of late Rococo fashion. Her towering 'pouf' hairstyle, adorned with delicate flowers and ostrich feathers, is complemented by a floral-patterned gown featuring intricate lace ruffles and a striking crimson bow at the bodice. Painted by a Central European master around 1775, the work exemplifies the refined decorative style of the late 18th century.
