"Portrait of a Lady, Aged 30, Three-Quarter-Length, in a Black Dress with a White Ruff, a Pomander in Her Right Hand, Her Left Arm Resting on a Book" is a notable work by the Dutch Golden Age painter Michiel Jansz. van Mierevelt. Created in the early 17th century, this painting exemplifies the period's portraiture style, characterized by meticulous attention to detail, a restrained palette, and an emphasis on the social status and character of the sitter.

Michiel Jansz. van Mierevelt (1567–1641) was one of the most prominent portraitists of his time in the Netherlands, renowned for his ability to capture the likeness and personality of his subjects. In this particular portrait, the artist depicts a woman at the age of thirty, dressed in the fashion of the Dutch upper class. Her attire, a black dress with a stark white ruff, was typical of the era and indicative of her social standing. The inclusion of a pomander—a ball containing perfumes or aromatic substances—suggests her wealth and attention to the refined customs of the day.

The subject's pose, with her left arm resting on a book, adds an element of intellectualism or education, which was a valued attribute in Dutch society. The book may also serve as a symbol of the sitter's piety or learning. Mierevelt's skill in rendering textures, from the intricate lacework of the ruff to the sheen of the black fabric, demonstrates his mastery of oil painting techniques.

This portrait is a testament to Mierevelt's reputation as a sought-after artist among the Dutch elite. It provides modern viewers with insights into the cultural and social dynamics of the Netherlands during a period when portraiture served as a key means of asserting identity and status. The painting remains an important piece within the oeuvre of Mierevelt and a significant example of portraiture from the Dutch Golden Age.
