About the piece

In this charming work from 1916, Danish artist Laurits Tuxen portrays his daughter in an elaborate fancy dress costume. The painting is characterized by expressive, loose brushwork and a soft, luminous color palette that beautifully captures the textures of the ruffled fabric and the gentle expression of the sitter.
