Description: | Research into costumes reveals that this portrait probably dates from about 1675 to 1725. The lady appears to be middle-aged and the painter has represented her in a rather realistic manner, showing her sagging jaw line and the wrinkles under her eyes. She wears ear-rings, a common occurrence for women from the seventeenth century onwards, and pearls, which may be of the fake sort made in Paris from the seventeenth century. | Subjects: | portrait | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: French School Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8942... | Go to resource |
