About the piece

Painted around 1910 by artist Ľudovít Pitthordt, this oil study captures a woman with auburn hair and delicate features. The high contrast between her luminous skin and the deep teal and navy surroundings creates a sophisticated, atmospheric presence characteristic of Central European portraiture of the era.
