About the piece
Painted in 1788, this oil portrait depicts Catarina Terren at age 53. She is dressed in elaborate regional costume, including a gold-trimmed cap and lace-edged sleeves, holding symbols of her character: a small book for piety and a delicate rose. The work reflects the dignified, slightly folk-inflected style of portraiture characteristic of 18th-century Central European provincial art.
