About the piece

Painted in 1880 by Bertha Froriep, this oil-on-canvas portrait depicts Victoria Åberg with a masterful blend of realism and warmth. The subject's dark attire and lace-trimmed collar provide a striking contrast against the deep, muted background, drawing the eye to her thoughtful expression and the delicate details of her features.
