Portrait of a young woman, bust-length, Jan van Ravesteyn, between 1614 and 1650

"although this charming portrait bears a date of 1614, which has been recorded since 1927, the costume of the sitter indicates a later date, probably in the late 1630s or early 1640s. Van ravesteyn lived and worked in the hague as portraitist to the dutch court and became one of the founding members of the confrerie pictura there in 1656. We are grateful to nadja garthoff and sabine craft-giepmans of the rkd for confirming the attribution to van ravesteyn. " [1]. Date: between 1614 and 1650.
