The original work, attributed to Nicolas Maes and dated around 1680, shows the lady with a serene and elegant expression, dressed in refined clothes typical of the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003ePortraiture, as was customary at the time, is not limited to aesthetic representation but also seeks to convey the sitter's social status and personality. Nicolas Maes, a student of Rembrandt, is known for his use of light and composition to create intense, lifelike portraits. The original painting displays remarkable attention to detail, textures, and the interplay of light and shadow, typical of the 17th-century Dutch school. Federico Capasso's copy faithfully respects these characteristics, accurately reproducing the richness of color and the intimate atmosphere of the original. The technique employed demonstrates a great skill in capturing the textural quality of Maes's painting, while maintaining the portrait's charm and elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe original work was created by Nicolas Maes (1634-1693), a Dutch painter famous for his portraits and genre scenes influenced by Rembrandt's chiaroscuro.

The exact year this copy was created is unknown, but its style confirms a careful observation of the pictorial characteristics of the original model.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Capogrossi Andrea","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56220108554626,"sku":"ACAP002","price":1950.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/IMG_20250108_115433594.jpg?v=1768488638","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/federico-capasso-copia-da-nicolas-maes-ritratto-di-dama","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
