About the piece

This charming oil portrait is an anonymous 19th-century interpretation of a self-portrait by the celebrated French artist Élisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun. The subject is depicted with a soft, engaging expression, her features framed by a voluminous cream headscarf and a rich green garment, exemplifying the refined Neoclassical style.
