Portrait of an English Lady, ca. 1540-43 by Hans Holbein

            "Holbein: Capturing Character" Exhibit at the Morgan Library, New York.

This likeness conveys the poise of a woman of distinction, probably, a member of the English court. The sitter's serene features are balanced by the emphatic yet decorous gesture of her clasped hands. Holbein's sumptuous palette and use of gold - on her fashionable French hood, the gleaming jeweled medallion affixed to her gown, and even the tiny pin fastening her black sleeve - date this portrait to the last years of his career but provide no clues to the sitter's identity. The medallion, which shows two figures standing on either side of a fire, might represent an Old Testament scene.
