Description: | This oval portrait depicts an elegant lady, wearing an elaborate brocade dress decorated with lace from the period of around 1670-1680. This can be dated quite precisely as the lady appears to sport a hurluberlu hairstyle, consisting of a mass of curls. The lady also wears a pearl necklace and pearl earrings. She is turned to her left and wears a cape above her richly embroidered dress. She also has a lace shirt under her dress. This work has been related to the style of the French portraitist Pierre Mignard. | Subjects: | portrait | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Mignard, Pierre, I (French painter and portraitist, 1612-1695) Æ Attributed to manner of Attributed to French School | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=9029... | Go to resource |
