About the piece

Painted in 1859 by Slovak artist Peter Michal Bohúň, this formal oil portrait depicts Mrs. Telčová with quiet dignity. The work is notable for its intricate rendering of lace details in the sitter's bonnet and cuffs, which provide a striking contrast against the deep, dark tones of her attire and the atmospheric background.
