About the piece
Painted around 1865 by Argentine artist Prilidiano Pueyrredón, this oil on canvas captures a woman in a moment of quiet dignity. The work is defined by its deep, atmospheric background and the rich texture of the sitter's velvet garment, which serves to highlight the luminous rendering of her features and the delicate lace at her neckline.
