Description: | Signed: yes Description: The image depicts a finely-dressed young woman standing in an ornate room next to a draped table on which stands a jewel casket. She holds a necklace, and a dog crouches under the table. The physical characteristics of this sitter are strikingly similar to that of the sitter in another van der Helst portrait, Portrait of Girl in Pale Blue with an Ostrich Feather which is in the collection of the National Gallery, and is identified as a member of the Braganza family. It is possible that this is the same sitter. | Subjects: | portrait; interior | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Helst, Bartholomeus van der (Dutch painter, 1613-1670) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8703... | Go to resource |
