More about this artwork

This exquisite painting, titled _Lady with a Fan_, is an outstanding work by Anthony van Dyck, dating back to around 1628. Van Dyck, a master of portraiture, was renowned for his ability to capture the elegance and grace of the aristocracy during the Baroque period.In this portrait, the subject stands confidently, dressed in a sophisticated and richly detailed garment that exhibits the fashion of the 17th century. The lady's attire features a striking combination of a white satin dress with voluminous sleeves, delicately trimmed with lace, and a dark velvet gown draped across her torso. A golden chain adorned with a floral pendant gracefully encircles her waist, enhancing her noble stature.Her facial expression is gentle yet assured, with soft rosy cheeks and curly hair that frames her face lightly. The fan in her hand, although partially obscured, is a key element of the portrait, suggesting a sense of refined leisure and sophistication.Anthony van Dyck's talent in using soft, diffused lighting highlights the textures of the fabric and the smoothness of her skin, creating a lifelike representation that is both intimate and majestic.

Sir Anthony van Dyck (1599 – 1641) was a Flemish Baroque artist who became the leading court painter in England after success in the Spanish Netherlands and Italy.

The seventh child of Frans van Dyck, a wealthy Antwerp silk merchant, Anthony painted from an early age. He was successful as an independent painter in his late teens, and became a master in the Antwerp guild in 1618. By this time he was working in the studio of the leading northern painter of the day, Peter Paul Rubens, who became a major influence on his work.
