About the piece
Painted in 1911 by Estonian modernist Nikolai Triik, this portrait of Alviina Hyllestedt showcases a sophisticated use of color and light. The subject is seated in an ornate armchair, her figure enveloped in a pale shawl that catches a spectrum of soft pastels, while the dark wood of a piano in the background provides a grounding contrast.
