About the piece
Painted in 1717 by Jan van Helmont, this striking portrait depicts Theresia Mechtildis Schilders with a dignified expression and fashionably powdered hair. She wears a lavishly embroidered red and gold mantle over a delicate lace bodice, set against a soft, atmospheric landscape that highlights the warmth of the composition.
