About the piece

Painted in 1890 by Henri Fantin-Latour, this intimate portrait depicts the artist's niece, Sonia. The work demonstrates Fantin-Latour's exceptional ability to capture texture, from the soft ostrich feathers of the hat to the dense, dark fur of the wrap against a delicate cream-colored gown.
