About the piece
Painted in 1850 by Henri Lehmann, a student of Ingres, this striking portrait depicts Doctor M.G. Worms with a sophisticated use of light and shadow. The subject’s thoughtful expression and the rich, dark palette evoke a sense of quiet authority and timeless elegance characteristic of mid-19th-century French portraiture.
