About the piece
Painted around 1831 by Ary Scheffer, this luminous portrait is believed to depict Princess Marie d'Orléans. The artist masterfully captures the translucent quality of her white lace sleeves and the soft, contemplative expression of the sitter, reflecting the refined and poetic sensibility of the French Romantic period.
