About the piece
This elegant oil portrait by Jan Daniel Beynon depicts Wilhelmina Margaretha Martherus in a moment of quiet contemplation. Painted in 1873, the work showcases the artist's mastery of texture, from the soft white folds of the garment to the intricate patterns of the batik sarong and the rich red velvet of the chair.
