Context:
|
The identity of the sitter is unknown. Her wistful demeanor may indicate that the artist, French Symbolist painter Edmond Aman-Jean, was more concerned with evoking a meditative mood than with defining a specific personality. The picture was exhibited at the Paris Salon exhibition of 1891.
