Mujer vista de espalda

ca. 1862
Not on view
Esta imagen es a la vez un retrato, una estampa de moda y un comentario humorístico. Su autor era un rico fotógrafo amateur, relacionado con la corte imperial francesa. El complicado moño, obviamente obra de una hábil doncella, las discretas joyas y las lujosas telas del vestido indican que se trata de una dama de alto rango muy peripuesta. Aunque nos preguntamos quién es, su identidad no es tan importante como el aura de misterio que la rodea. Otra imagen en la que la misma mujer aparece de perfil revela una expresión inquieta y un mentón retraído.
