About the piece

Painted in 1619 by Michiel Jansz. van Mierevelt, this refined oil portrait depicts Sara Bosschaert seated in a dignified pose. The work is a masterclass in Dutch Golden Age realism, from the crisp pleats of her white millstone ruff to the soft sheen of her fur-lined mantle and the delicate lace at her cuffs.
