About the Item
This authentic 19th-century oil portrait depicts a young European woman in traditional attire, painted with refined academic realism and quiet emotional restraint. The sitter is shown in three-quarter view, wearing a straw hat with a blue ribbon, a lace-trimmed blouse, and a dark bodice, delicately holding a small basket of flowers. The soft transitions of light across the face, gentle blush tones, and composed expression reflect mid-19th-century European portrait traditions, closely aligned with Biedermeier and early Realist aesthetics.
The background is intentionally subdued, allowing full focus on the sitter’s character and presence. Brushwork is controlled and confident, with careful modeling of facial features and textiles. The composition suggests a formal studio portrait rather than a genre scene, typical of European academic painting of the period.
📏 Measurements: Painting approx. 19.5" × 24"; Framed approx. 30" × 26"
🎨 Medium: Oil on canvas
🖋️ Artist: Signed and dated 1868 in the lower right (signature partially legible)
🖼️ Frame: Original period gilt wood frame; minor wear, losses, and age-related surface imperfections

This is a genuine antique European oil painting from the mid-19th century, suitable for collectors of academic portraiture, Biedermeier art, or refined period interiors.
Please note: Physical colors may vary slightly due to lighting, camera quality, and screen settings. Most items sold by MaksArtGallery are antique, vintage, or pre-owned and may show signs of age such as craquelure, patina, scuffs, or general wear. These characteristics add authenticity and charm. Please review all photographs carefully, as they are considered part of the item description.
Supporting Attribution Note
The painting is clearly dated 1868, placing it firmly within the mid-19th-century European academic tradition. The clothing style, including the bodice cut, lace neckline, straw hat, and restrained jewelry, is consistent with continental European fashion of the 1860s.
