This portrait of a young woman belongs to the Orientalist movement that swept
through Europe in the 19th century and drew inspiration, in particular, from the
Greek War of Independence between 1821 and 1829. This movement was championed by artists
such as Jean-Joseph Benjamin-Constant, Léon Cogniet, Théodore Chassériau
and, above all, Jean-Léon Gérôme and Eugène Delacroix.
The style and composition of this painting bring it close to the work of Jan
Portielje.
