About the piece
This 1625 masterpiece by Sir Anthony van Dyck depicts Marchesa Balbi with the elegance and dignity characteristic of his Genoese period. The painting showcases Van Dyck’s mastery of texture, from the stiff luminosity of the lace ruff to the heavy, shimmering weight of the gold-embroidered velvet gown, set against a dramatic, atmospheric background.
