The artwork titled “Portrait of a Daughter Beata” is a creation by the artist Jan Matejko. This piece belongs to the Romanticism art movement and falls within the portrait genre.
The artwork portrays a young girl named Beata, depicted in a realistic style with delicate, meticulous brushwork. Her long, flowing hair glistens with natural light, cascading over her shoulder as she turns to face the viewer with a serene yet introspective expression. She is dressed in a traditional garment, reflecting the artist’s attention to historical and cultural details. The background is adorned with lush, vibrant foliage, enhancing the Romanticism emphasis on nature and emotion, and providing a harmonious contrast to the subject’s fair complexion.
