About the piece
This 1884 oil portrait by Hungarian artist Jenő Doby captures Mrs. Fiedler in a moment of quiet repose. Dressed in a rich black velvet gown with intricate lace cuffs and a delicate collar, she holds a small volume, suggesting a woman of intellect and status in a refined Victorian-era setting.
