EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of a young woman from the late 16th to early 17th century. The artist, Nicolas Lagneau or Lanneau, skillfully used white and black chalk on paper to bring this exquisite piece to life. The subject is depicted in a half-length pose, turned slightly to the left, with her direct gaze fixed upon the viewer. Dressed in an elegant jacket and collar, she exudes grace and sophistication. Her vibrant red hair cascades down her shoulders, adding a touch of allure to her already striking appearance. A stylish hat adorns her head, completing her fashionable ensemble. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his chalk. From the intricate folds of her clothing to the delicate shading on her face, he has masterfully captured both the physical features and inner beauty of this young woman. Displayed against a neutral background within a private collection, this artwork serves as a window into history - offering us a glimpse into fashion trends and societal norms during that era. As we admire this remarkable piece today, we are reminded of the timeless appeal of portraiture and its ability to transcend time. This print allows us not only to appreciate fine art but also invites us into an intimate connection with an anonymous young woman who lived centuries ago.
