About the piece

Painted in 1740 by Olof Arenius, this Rococo-era portrait captures a young woman with a refined, graceful air. Dressed in a shimmering blue cloak and a wide-brimmed hat adorned with blossoms, she holds a delicate basket of roses, a classic symbol of beauty and femininity in 18th-century art.
