"Jonge vrouw staand voor spiegel" (Young Woman Standing Before a Mirror) is a 19th-century print by Nicolas Maurin, a French artist active from 1798-1850. The print, created in the style of Neoclassicism, features a woman dressed in a white gown, standing in a richly decorated interior. She looks into a mirror, possibly preparing for a social event, highlighting the importance of personal appearance in the early 19th century. The print's delicate colors and detailed depiction of both the woman and her surroundings illustrate the meticulous attention to detail common in Neoclassical art. The print is a good example of the "Toilette" genre, a common subject in art of the period that depicted women preparing for social gatherings, showcasing their fashionable attire.
