About the piece
Painted in 1851 by Maximilián Ratskay, this dignified oil portrait captures Mrs. Turánska in a moment of quiet composure. The subject's dark, center-parted hair is draped with a translucent lace veil that adds a layer of delicacy to her otherwise somber black gown, a hallmark of mid-Victorian era fashion.
