About the piece
Painted in 1901 by Jean-Jacques Henner, this oil portrait captures Madame Séraphin Henner in a dramatic side profile. The work is a masterclass in light and shadow, with the warm, illuminated skin tones of the subject emerging from a deep, atmospheric background and dark, textured attire.
