About the piece

Painted in 1852 by Peter Michal Bohúň, this tender oil portrait depicts Ľudmila Droppová. The young subject is shown in a delicate pink dress with a striking red coral necklace, her hands occupied with knitting—a common trope of virtuous domesticity in 19th-century Central European portraiture.
