EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a half-length portrait of Sophie or Apollonia Helena Potocka as a young girl, taken in 1872. The image, captured by the talented German photographer Robert Reyher and E. H. Schroeder, transports us back to the 19th century. The subject of the photograph, believed to be either Sophie or Apollonia Helena Potocka, exudes an air of innocence and youthfulness. Her delicate features are beautifully highlighted against the monochromatic backdrop. The attention to detail is remarkable - from her flowing curls cascading down her shoulders to the intricate lace collar adorning her dress. Elisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun's influence can be seen in this portrait through its composition and style. Known for her expertise in capturing the essence of her subjects, Le Brun's artistic touch shines through in every aspect of this image. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this piece has become part of our cultural heritage. It serves as a window into a bygone era when photography was still emerging as an art form. Through this photograph, we are invited to reflect on the beauty and grace that transcends time. It reminds us that even though centuries have passed since its creation, art continues to connect us with our shared human experience.
