About the piece
Painted in 1873 by Carl Huns, this masterful oil portrait depicts a lady in a magnificent teal-blue dress, its silk fabric rendered with luminous detail. Set against a backdrop of ornate wall coverings, a large blue-and-white porcelain vase, and gilded furniture, the work exemplifies the refined elegance of European portraiture from the late 19th century.
