About the piece
Painted by Johan Ludwig Lund in 1831, this graceful portrait captures a woman in a moment of prayerful devotion. A study after the Renaissance master Perugino, the work features luminous skin tones, rich green and gold attire, and a soft, reverent expression characteristic of the Romantic period's interest in classical beauty and spiritual grace.
