Portrait of a Young Woman

Portrait of a young woman, Master of the 1540s (Antwerp-based portraitsit, active 1531–51), oil on panel, arched top, 34 x 22 cm, framed.

On an old label attached to the frame bears the incription “Oberdeutscher Meister 16. Jahrhundert...” (Upper German master 16th century).

I found this image interesting because you can see the edges of the partlet, since it is worn outside of the gown.
