About the piece

Painted by Teodoro Matteini in 1797, this neoclassic portrait captures a young woman in a moment of quiet contemplation within a lush landscape. She is dressed in a simple, high-waisted white gown with a golden sash, holding a letter as she rests against a mossy bank and a large ivy-covered tree.
