About the piece
This late 17th-century portrait by Jan de Baen depicts Antoinette van Foreest with a sense of quiet dignity and aristocratic refinement. The artist masterfully renders the play of light across her white satin dress and draped coral wrap, set against the dark, atmospheric background of a formal garden at dusk.
