About the piece

Painted in 1773 by Johann Heinrich Tischbein, this portrait depicts Amalie Apell with graceful poise. The work captures the intricate details of late Rococo fashion, from the delicate lace-trimmed headpiece to the finely rendered handheld fan, all set against a warm, atmospheric background typical of the period.
