About the piece
Painted in 1836 by Hendrik Scheffer, this oil-on-canvas portrait captures Cornélia Scheffer-Lamme with a calm and contemplative expression. The work highlights the intricate lace of her collar and the soft sheen of a blue silk ribbon, set against a rich, dark background characteristic of the Romantic era.
