About the piece

Commissioned in 1836, this masterful portrait by Moritz Daniel Oppenheim depicts Charlotte de Rothschild in a shimmering white gown and elaborate pearl jewelry. The sitter is framed by the dark, lush leaves of an orange tree, while the background reveals an atmospheric view of the Bay of Naples and the smoking peak of Mount Vesuvius, blending high-society portraiture with the Romantic fascination for the Italian landscape.
