Description: | The Infanta Isabella-Clara Eugenia, daughter of Philip II of Spain, half-length and full-face, looking intently at the spectator, is seated against a plain wall with a gold silk curtain. She is dressed sombrely in the habit of the Order of the Poor Clares, which she entered upon her husband's death. The face is set off against a white over-garment. This is a studio version of the full-length in the Pinacoteca in Turin, based on Rubens' portrait of 1625. Van Dyck had made an unsuccessful application for a sitting from the Infanta, and was thus compelled to use the Rubens prototype. | Subjects: | portrait (Infanta Isabella Clara Eugenia) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Dyck, Anthony van (Flemish painter, 1599-1641, active in England) Æ Attributed to studio of | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8738... | Go to resource |
