About the piece

Painted in 1813 by Louis-Léopold Boilly, this oil portrait captures the quiet dignity of its subject with remarkable precision. The woman is depicted in a high-waisted white dress with a delicate ruffled collar and a blue sash, reflecting the neoclassical fashion of the French Empire period.
