Three-quarter Length Portrait of Magdalena Klein, 1802
About the object
Magdalena Klein (b. 1785) is portraited here at the age of seventeen. She is turning to the right toward her husband Jakob Klein, whose portrait is also in the collection. A transparent shawl is wrapped around her blue Empire-style gown. Jewellery and the modern updo hairstyle complete the overall impression of a representative style.
