Florentine was a model at the Royal Danish Academy in 1840 and 1841. In the summer of 1841, she was painted in two poses which were seen from various angles around the room by students of the Academy including C. W. Eckersberg, L. A. Smith, J. C. Dahl, H. J. Hammer, Sally (Salomon) Henriques and his brother Nathan, among others. The present work depicts the second pose, which she stood for from August 9th to September 18th. Eckersberg appears to have been standing just to the left of Sally Henriques while painting his version of Florentine in this pose, a painting which is now in the Hirschsprung Collection, Copenhagen.
