Een vrouw
Ref: sk-a-3843
In Northern Europe portraits were less idealized than in Italy. That is not to say that the women there were more modest. While this lady presents an unadorned face, her clothes are particularly sumptuous. Her gown is made of brown silk damask and the pinkish-red underdress is interwoven with gold thread. She was undoubtedly wealthy and came from the vicinity of Haarlem or from Mechelen, where Mostaert was
also active.
