INVINITY IN WHITE, oil on canvas, 19th century

An en face portrait.

The young girl was shown in a white dress, girdled with a pink sash. Wide buffs and delicate ruffles on the neckline complete the model's porcelain complexion.

She covered her thick curls with a transparent veil that wrapped around her frail shoulders. The lightness of the subtle material refers to the natural innocence of a young girl.
