Reference: Z4164
Lady. Oil on canvas. Signed (F. Lloret.) and dated (February 97) in the lower right corner. On an indeterminate background, there is the bust of a lady, her head slightly turned to the left. In the lower right corner, you can see the painter's signature and the date of completion of the work (February 97, 1897). As in the rest of Europe, portraiture was a genre that enjoyed great popularity in 19th century Spain, mainly thanks to social changes (rise of the upper bourgeoisie, etc.) that influenced aesthetics, hence the degree of intimacy that the painting gives off, different from the “official portraits” preferred by the nobility.
