About the piece

Painted around 1870 by László Mednyánszky, this oil study captures a woman in a moment of quiet repose. The work is characterized by the artist's signature loose, expressive brushwork and a sophisticated use of light that gives the subject a luminous, three-dimensional presence against the more atmospheric background.
