About the piece
Painted in 1870 by Jacob Maris, a leading figure of the Hague School, 'The Little Marquise' showcases the artist's masterful use of impasto and light. The subject is rendered with a quiet dignity, her voluminous gown shimmering against a deep, enigmatic background, embodying the soulful realism of late 19th-century Dutch art.
