About the piece
This dignified portrait by Jürgen Ovens depicts Princess Maria Elisabet of Holstein-Gottorp in a sophisticated European style. Set against a deep, moody background, the sitter is rendered with luminous skin tones and intricate detail, from her characteristic curled hairstyle to the soft luster of her pearls and gown. It is a masterful example of the period's formal portraiture.
