Description: | This is a three-quarter length portrait of a woman dressed in 17th century costume, comprising a black dress with white lace collar, or ruff, and cuffs. The background is an interior wall, with a green curtain behind her on the right. Her right hand rests on a table, the left hand is down by her side, holding a short black rod, possibly a key. In the upper left corner is a crest consisting of a lozenge flanked by ribbons, with an ermine field and two gules bars. On her chest is a medallion in which a tiny image can be seen, possibly a miniature, or maybe a reflection of the artist. | Subjects: | interior; portrait | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Dutch School Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=9051... | Go to resource |
