About the piece

Painted in 1896 by Pierre-Georges Jeanniot, this evocative oil portrait depicts Marcelle Jeanniot at the age of fifteen. The composition expertly balances the deep, dark tones of her mourning-style dress and the interior with the luminous profile of her face and the delicate pops of color from a nearby vase of tulips, capturing the refined melancholic spirit of the era.
