About the piece

Attributed to Peter Danckerts de Rij, this 1640 oil painting depicts Elżbieta Kazanowska in the formal attire of the mid-17th century. Her dark gown is sharply contrasted by a crisp white lace collar and intricate gold chains at the waist and neck. The inclusion of small blue forget-me-nots adds a layer of sentimental symbolism to this refined period work.
