Description: | The unknown sitter in this bust-length portrait wears a pearl necklace and a low-cut dark blue velvet dress over a white chemise. Her dress has broad sleeves with muslin under-sleeves billowing out, a style which was fashionable in the 1660s. Costume and hairstyle thus indicate a possible date for the portrait. The work is painted in the style of Herman Verelst. After training and working in Antwerp, Verelst moved to England in about 1669. | Subjects: | portrait | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Verelst, Herman (Dutch portrait painter, born 1641 or 1642, died ca. 1690) Æ Attributed to circle of Attributed to Flemish School Previously attributed to school of Dyck, Anthony van (Flemish painter, 1599-1641, active in England) | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8999... | Go to resource |
