Portret van Constance Mayer 1844 - 1904

This print, titled "Portret van Constance Mayer" created by Achille Louis Joseph Sirouy, depicts a bust portrait of a woman framed by a decorative border. It is a reproduction of an original painting, potentially a portrait of the Dutch painter Constance Mayer (1755-1821). Sirouy, born in 1834 and who died in 1904, was a well-known French printmaker. The reproduction technique, likely engraving or etching, was a popular method to disseminate images in the 19th century. This particular print, with its detailed rendering and classic subject matter, suggests it was intended for a discerning audience.
