About the piece
Painted in 1842 by Miklós Barabás, this striking oil on canvas depicts a young woman in mourning attire. The composition highlights the masterful rendering of textures, from the light-absorbing depth of the black velvet dress to the luminous skin tones and delicate floral hair ornament, typical of refined mid-19th-century European portraiture.
