About the piece
Created in 1889 by Felix Possart, this oil on panel work captures a quiet, private moment within a 19th-century study. A woman sits in profile, absorbed in her reading, while the surrounding walls—laden with framed ancestors and formal portraits—create a sense of historical weight and academic focus.
