The lady in white 1880

"The Lady in White" is a portrait painting created in 1880 by Russian artist Fyodor Bronnikov. The painting depicts a woman in a simple white dress with a white head covering, her face turned in profile, and features a soft, subtle, and almost dreamy rendering of her features. The work is an example of Bronnikov's mastery of portraiture and his ability to capture the beauty and dignity of his subjects. This is a great example of the realistic style of the 19th century and the use of soft, natural lighting, which enhances the portrait's intimate feel.
