About the piece

Painted in 1869 by Louis Hendrix, this work exemplifies the 19th-century revival of Northern Renaissance aesthetics. The composition focuses on the emotional interiority of the four women, their faces framed by luminous white veils and rendered with the precise draftsmanship and smooth finish characteristic of the Flemish influence.
