About the piece
Created in 1812 by Louise Hersent, this French Neoclassical portrait features a woman of poise and dignity. The composition is defined by the sharp contrast of her rich red dress against a dark, atmospheric background, accented by a masterfully rendered lace collar and an embroidered yellow shawl draped over her arm.
