1644Portrait of Jacoba Bontemantel (1643-?)
Three-quarter length portrait of a young woman, set against a dark, neutral background. The figure is centrally placed, looking directly at the viewer. The composition is dominated by the vertical lines of the clothing and the contrast between the bright white gown and the dark background.
Oil on canvas, characteristic of 17th-century Dutch or Flemish portraiture. The brushwork suggests detailed rendering of fabric textures and skin tones.
