About the piece

Painted in 1830 by Kanuty Rusiecki, this oil-on-canvas portrait depicts the artist's wife, Antonina. The work is characterized by its sophisticated use of light, particularly on the sitter's skin and jewelry, contrasted against a deep, moody background and the vibrant weight of a red shawl.
