Visual Summary

Brief Description

A woman in an elaborate grey gown, large ruff, pearl-studded headpiece, and gold rosettes

Detailed Description

A full-length portrait depicts a woman seated, facing slightly to the viewer's right, with her gaze directed forward. She has fair skin, light brown or reddish hair styled high and adorned with a pearl-studded headpiece. Her eyes are light, and her lips are a pale red. She wears a very large, grey, pleated ruff around her neck, edged with pearls. Her elaborate grey gown features puffed sleeves and a fitted bodice, both heavily embroidered with a pattern of gold and orange rosettes and small pearls. A large, spiky gold brooch is pinned to her chest. She wears multiple strands of pearls as necklaces and bracelets. Her right hand rests on her lap, while her left hand, adorned with pearl bracelets, holds a small, light brown fur object. The skirt of her gown is full and flowing, made of a shimmering grey fabric. The background behind her is dark green on the left and a draped reddish-brown curtain on the right.
