About the piece
Dating to 1797, this elegant portrait by Józef Faworski captures the elaborate fashion and poise of the late 18th century. The sitter is depicted in a formal blue gown accented with delicate lace ruffles and a towering powdered wig adorned with large feathers, while the bouquet of roses in her hand introduces a soft, romantic element to the composition.
