EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Portrait of a woman, aged sixteen, previously identified as Mary Fitzalan, Duchess of Norfolk" takes us back to the year 1565. Painted by the talented British artist Hans Eworth, this oil on panel masterpiece is a true testament to his skill and attention to detail. The subject of the painting is a young woman in her prime. Her delicate features are beautifully captured with precision and grace. Dressed in an exquisite costume adorned with intricate details, she exudes elegance and sophistication beyond her years. The use of vibrant yellow paint for the signature adds a touch of brilliance to the composition. Positioned at the center right corner, it serves as a reminder that this artwork was carefully crafted by Eworth himself. Every element within this portrait tells its own story - from the richly textured curtains serving as backdrop to her elaborate headgear and collar embellished with jewels. The pannier and farthingale accentuate her slender waistline while undersleeves add an extra layer of refinement. As we gaze into her eyes, we can't help but wonder about her life during that era - what dreams did she hold? What challenges did she face? This remarkable piece invites us into history's embrace and allows our imagination to run wild. In conclusion, Hans Eworth's "Portrait of a woman" is not just another painting; it is an extraordinary glimpse into sixteenth-century British society through one young lady's enigmatic gaze.
