Description: | Signed: yes Description: Otto Hoynck's portrait of Winifred, Countess of Coventry (d. 1694), is one of the many portraits surviving from the collection of the sitter's brother Sir Richard Edgcumbe (1639-1688). The style of the painting - a bust portrait composed within an oval cartouche - was particularly fashionable at that time, as were her rich silks and pearls. Similarities can be seen, for example, against another portrait in the same collection, of Catherine of Braganza, Queen Consort to Charles II. | Subjects: | portrait (Winifred née Edgcumbe Countess of Coventry d. 1694) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Hoynck, Otto (Dutch artist, born ca 1630, died 1686) Æ Attributed to circle of Lely, Peter (Dutch painter and draftsman, 1618-1680, active in England) Previously attributed to Hanneman, Adriaen (Dutch painter, ca.1601-1671) | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8609... | Go to resource |
