About the piece
This c. 1910 portrait by Clémentine Hélène Dufau depicts Madame Pol Neveux with a quiet, contemplative gaze. The composition is enriched by a vase of dark irises and a sophisticated interplay between the warm tones of the sitter's dress and the cool greens of the surrounding decor, reflecting the refined aesthetic of early 20th-century French portraiture.
