About the piece

Painted in 1886 by the Belgian master Alfred Stevens, this work showcases his signature blend of elegant portraiture and atmospheric coastal light. The subject, adorned in a delicate white dress with long gloves and a floral-trimmed hat, stands on a beach where faint sails and distant figures suggest a quiet, misty afternoon by the sea. The soft, tonal palette makes it a versatile and sophisticated piece for traditional or modern interiors.
