About the piece
Attributed to William Larkin in 1617, this portrait of Lady Jane Thornhaugh is a testament to the opulence of the Jacobean era. The artist demonstrates remarkable skill in rendering the various textures of the subject's attire—from the delicate lattice of her lace ruff to the shimmering silk of her mantle and the intricately embroidered botanical motifs on her bodice and skirt.
