Clara Schumann, German musician, wellknown as a composer and pianist of the Romantic era.

Schumann, according to Edvard Grieg "one of the most soulful and famous pianists of the day"

In this image, Clara is seen seated at a table, resting her head gently on her right hand in a contemplative pose. 

She wears a formal, dark Victorian-style dress adorned with intricate detailing and decorative patterns, typical of the fashion of that time. 

A brooch fastens her high collar, and a long chain accessory, possibly a watch chain, drapes across her bodice. 

Her hair is styled in a neat, pulled-back fashion and partially covered by a headpiece or veil.
