About the piece
Painted in 1879 by Peter Michal Bohúň, this oil portrait depicts Zuzana Beniačová with remarkable technical skill. The artist focuses on the rich textures of her velvet and fur-trimmed coat and the delicate structure of her bonnet, while her steady, gentle gaze provides a grounding emotional center to the composition.
