About the piece

Attributed to the Dutch Master Johannes Mytens and dating to approximately 1640, this portrait is a masterful example of the Hague school's courtly style. The subject is depicted in a brilliant blue silk dress, the texture and iridescence of which are captured with remarkable precision. Set within an idyllic landscape featuring a distant waterfall and lush greenery, the work balances the formality of a portrait with a charming, narrative-like moment of harvesting grapes.
