Unknown Artist - Noblewoman

Portraiture is one of the most widespread artistic expressions, especially in painting, but also in sculpture, throughout the ages. Portraiture is, first and foremost, a description of the subject depicted, an attempt to capture their physiognomy and individual characteristics truthfully and naturally. With the progressive evolution of artistic research, the physiognomic description of the subject has also been accompanied by a psychological one. Therefore, over the centuries, portraiture has also become a means of introspective investigation of the subject, their character, and their state of mind. The processes of abstraction brought about by contemporary art have contributed to this type of investigation.

The painting is exquisitely crafted thanks to the artist's drawing and color skills. We can first note the precision of the drawing, which can be seen in the authenticity of the facial details and the details of the period clothing and accessories. As for the color, however, the painter's skill can be seen in the atmospheric fusion that unites the subject with the decontextualized space of the work. This is achieved through subtle transitions of color tones.

The artist who executed this work demonstrates great technical skill, based on an academic background. This allows him to create, with excellent results, a painting inspired by seventeenth-century portraiture.
