About the piece
Dating to approximately 1820, this oil on canvas portrait depicts Eleonore Nyst in the refined fashion of the era. She wears a high-waisted forest green gown and a rich red shawl, crowned by a pink and white striped bonnet that frames a serene expression. The work captures the dignified character and textile richness typical of early 19th-century European portraiture.
