About the piece

Painted in Munich in 1894 by Aurél Balló, this oil study captures the soft features and steady gaze of a young woman. The artist's visible brushstrokes and warm, earthy palette lend the piece an intimate, sketch-like quality that brings a sense of history and character to any space.
