Portrait of young woman in blue dress 1874

Maurice Poirson's 1874 "Portrait of Young Woman in Blue Dress" depicts a woman in a striking blue gown with white fur trim and intricate lace detailing. The sitter's warm complexion and delicate features are accentuated by the cool blue hues of her clothing. The painting captures the fashionable style of the late 19th century and showcases Poirson's talent for realism and detail. The use of oil on canvas creates a smooth and luminous finish, further enhancing the beauty of the subject. The painting is currently in a private collection and measures 100 x 81 cm.
