Portrait of a Lady

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. Size: 58.7 x 47.5 cm.
