About the piece
Painted in 1833 by the renowned portraitist Joseph Karl Stieler, this work depicts Crescentia Bourgin, a subject in King Ludwig I's famous Gallery of Beauties. The painting showcases Stieler's technical mastery through the luminous pearls in her hair, the deep, heavy folds of her velvet dress, and the intricate lace of her cascading veil.
