About the piece
This 1830 oil painting by Gotthelf Leberecht Glaeser captures the elegant likeness of Adelheid Reiss. The work is distinguished by its meticulous rendering of delicate textures, from the fine lace of the sitter's bonnet and collar to the soft sheen of the silk ribbons, set against a muted atmospheric background.
