About the piece
Painted in 1739 by Robert Tournières, this classical portrait captures a woman in the guise of Pomona, the Roman divinity of fruitful abundance. She is rendered with luminous skin and sumptuously detailed attire, including gold-threaded lace and delicate pearls, holding a single ripe apple as an emblem of her identity.
