Johanne Sophie de Coninck, f. Wleugel

Executed in the Rococo style, the painting emphasizes refined detail and individual character. Juel employed soft shading to create a smooth, mask-like facial appearance, set against a plain dark background that directs the viewer's focus.

Completed in 1791, the portrait is now part of the collection at Statens Museum for Kunst. Jens Juel's works are notably represented at Frederiksborg Castle, highlighting his significance in Danish art.

The use of chiaroscuro, a lighting technique creating strong contrasts between light and dark, enhances the portrait's depth and draws attention to the sitter's face and shoulders.

As a work by Jens Juel, this portrait contributes to the broader legacy of Danish Rococo portraiture, characterized by its attention to detail and capture of the sitters' personalities.
