About the piece

Painted by Wilhelm Richter around 1850, this oil portrait depicts Baroness Hedviga Ledererová leaning gracefully against a stone balustrade. The work showcases the artist's masterful rendering of period textures, from the fine lace of her cuffs to the delicate floral hair ornaments, all balanced by a soft, painterly background of greenery and a light-dappled sky.
