About the piece
Painted in 1841 by Aleksander Stankiewicz, this refined portrait captures the quiet dignity of a young woman. Her luminous skin and dark ringlets contrast beautifully with the rich, pleated textures of her black off-the-shoulder gown, while a simple cross necklace adds a touch of delicate detail to the moody composition.
