Portrait of a Woman
Cornelis de Vos
Date unknown · Oil on wood · European Paintings
Although the present painting entered the Museum as a work of Van Dyck, the reserved expression of the sitter and the meticulous handling of the details of the costume are characteristic of de Vos's work. This highly respected Antwerp portrait painter is known for his dignified portraits which nevertheless maintain a charming modesty. He particularly excelled in group portraits of children.
