Original Description
Regina. Roman Girl with Choral Necklace and Earrings, painted in 1844 by Swedish artist Olof Johan Södermark, captures the serene beauty of Renaissance portraiture with Northern European precision. The half-length portrait depicts a youthful Roman maiden adorned with traditional coral jewelry, her downcast eyes and delicate features glowing against a muted olive background. Södermark, known for his meticulous Academic style blending Neoclassical idealism with Romantic sensitivity, creates an exquisite balance between anatomical accuracy and poetic softness. As one of the finest examples of 19th-century Swedish portraiture, the work reflects the growing European fascination with Italianate subjects during the Grand Tour era, bridging the technical mastery of Ingres with the intimate charm of Lawrence. The coral accessories—symbolizing protection in Roman culture—add both cultural authenticity and vivid chromatic contrast to the composition.
For sophisticated interior spaces, this portrait commands attention as a focal piece in dimly-lit studies or formal sitting rooms. Its 83x66cm dimensions suit placement above a Louis XVI-style console table or within a curated gallery wall of 19th-century academic works. The painting's terracotta and olive tones naturally complement Farrow & Ball's "India Yellow" or "Vert de Terre" wall treatments, while the coral accents inspire textile selections in salmon pink or oxidized copper hues. In minimalist offices, it introduces historical gravitas when paired with dark walnut shelving and brass desk accessories; for maximalist bedrooms, its romantic aura harmonizes with velvet drapery and gilded mirrors. The ideal hanging height positions Regina's gaze slightly below eye level (approx. 145-155cm from floor) to create an intimate viewing experience, with directional lighting emphasizing the sfumato blending of her complexion against the warm, earthy background.
