About the piece
Created around 1880, this oil painting by Henri Gervex showcases a delicate profile of a woman with vibrant auburn hair. The work features a striking contrast between the luminous, ivory tones of the skin and the deep, moody background, exemplifying the refined technique of late 19th-century French portraiture.
