About the piece
Painted in 1867 by Franz Streitt, this intimate portrait of Wanda Monné exemplifies mid-19th-century European realism. The subject is captured in a graceful profile, with the warm, luminous rendering of her skin and the brilliant pop of red from her jewelry creating a sophisticated and timeless aesthetic.
