About the piece

Painted in 1876 by the renowned German portraitist Franz von Lenbach, this oil study showcases his masterful ability to capture character through loose, confident brushwork. The young woman’s pensive gaze is framed by dark curls, emerging from an atmospheric, warm-toned background that lends a timeless, scholarly feel to the piece.
