Portrait Of A Young Woman From The Empire Period

An elegant portrait depicting a young woman seen in left profile, following a composition rooted in the neoclassical tradition. The subject is portrayed with great simplicity, set against a solid background in shades of gray-green.
Her brown hair is carefully pulled back into a bun and held in place by a black velvet headband, while a skillfully drawn curl frames her temple—a detail characteristic of women’s fashion from the 1810s to the 1830s. A discreet earring and a delicate necklace reflect a refined taste without ostentation.
The ivory satin dress, with puffed sleeves, is embellished with delicate lace trim at the neckline. A pink ribbon tied beneath the bust adds a touch of softness.

Please note that the painting is on a re-stretched canvas and the paint layer shows signs of retouching. The frame has some missing sections and is from a later period.
