Description: | Oil on canvas. This painting is derived from Anthony van Dyck’s portrait of 'Jane Goodwin' (1639; State Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg), daughter of the First Viscount Wenman of Thames Park and Twyford and wife of politician Arthur Goodwin (died 1643). Jane is depicted at the age of 36. She stands in a landscape similar to that of this work, holds a red tulip in her right hand and wears a brown dress with red sleeves. Another similar portrait, showing a young woman in the same pose, but wearing a white dress, was sold through Sotheby’s, London, in 1995. The Sotheby’s work was identified as a portrait of Penelope Wenman, Lady Carr, the niece of Jane Goodwin, and this work may depict another of her relatives. | Subjects: | rose unknown woman 17th century costume landscape C17th female portrait dress woman tulip stone/rock | Temporal: | 1639-1650; 1639/1650 | Source: | Government Art Collection | Creator: | Sir Anthony van Dyck (circle) | Identifier: | http://www.gac.culture.gov.uk/work.aspx?... | Go to resource |
