Painting Description
Portrait Of A Lady, Quarter-length, In A Black Dress With White Lace Trim, Holding A Book In Her Right Hand" a notable work by the renowned Flemish artist, Justus Sustermans (1597–1681). Born in Antwerp, Sustermans is best known for his proficient portraits of the Medici family, and this particular artwork is exemplary of his signature style.
The portrait showcases a lady, presumably of high social standing, dressed in an elegant black dress adorned with a white lace trim. Her right hand delicately holds a book, suggesting her literate status and the aristocratic idleness associated with reading in the 17th century. The artist masterfully captures the illumination of her dress against the dim backdrop, emphasizing her royal demeanor and arresting gaze.
Sustermans' innate ability to portray the social rankings and personal character of his subjects is brilliantly displayed in this portrait. The unknown lady's wealth and prestige are subtly hinted at through her expensive dress and the book, both symbols of high status and education. The detailed, realistic painting style reflects Sustermans' Flemish background and the influence of his contemporaries, while his exceptional rendering of fabrics highlights his individual skill and talent.
The precise date of the painting's creation remains unknown; however, analysis of Sustermans' stylistic development and the subject's attire suggests it was produced in the mid-17th century. The portrait is currently held in a private collection and is a significant testament to Sustermans' artistic prowess and his crucial role in the evolution of portrait painting during the Italian Baroque period.
