"Portrait of the Marchesa Balbi" is a celebrated painting by Sir Anthony van Dyck, a prominent Flemish Baroque artist who became the leading court painter in England under King Charles I. The work, dating from around 1623, is a striking example of Van Dyck's portraiture, showcasing his mastery of elegance and his ability to capture the sitter's character and social standing.

The painting depicts Paola Adorno, Marchesa di Balbi, a member of Genoese nobility, in a three-quarter length format. She is adorned in luxurious garments that reflect her wealth and status, with Van Dyck's use of sumptuous textures and rich colors emphasizing the opulence of her attire. The Marchesa's pose and expression convey a sense of aristocratic confidence and grace, typical of Van Dyck's skill in portraying the nobility.

Van Dyck's time in Italy, from 1621 to 1627, greatly influenced his artistic style, as evidenced in this portrait. His exposure to the works of Italian masters, particularly Titian, is apparent in his use of color and his sensitive rendering of the Marchesa's visage. The portrait is not only a testament to the individual it represents but also an example of the cultural exchange between the Italian and Flemish artistic traditions.

"Portrait of the Marchesa Balbi" is held in high esteem among Van Dyck's oeuvre and is frequently studied for its aesthetic qualities and historical significance. The painting is part of the collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it continues to be admired by scholars and the public alike.
