Swabian School circa 1515

Portrait of a Patrician Lady

Oil on panel (parquetted). 39.5 x 25 cm.

This work shows a half-length portrait of a married patrician lady beneath an archway framing a plain green background. She is dressed in a white bonnet and red dress with gold trimming, turned to the left and holding a forget-me-not in her hand. The piece was probably originally accompanied by a corresponding portrait of the lady's husband.

Provenance

Julius Böhler, Munich, 1934. - The Heinrich Neuerburg collection, Cologne. - Henceforth in family ownership.
