EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Portrait of a Lady, half-length, holding a case of quills before a ledge" is an exquisite example of the mastery and skill of German artist Hans Schopfer the Elder. Painted in oil on panel during the mid-16th century, this artwork measures 68x50.5 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The lady depicted in this painting exudes elegance and sophistication as she gazes away from the viewer with an air of aversion. Her posture suggests confidence and poise, while her fine jewelry adds to her regal appearance. The green background beautifully contrasts with her attire and highlights her presence within the composition. Intriguingly, she holds a case filled with quills before a ledge, indicating that she may be involved in correspondence or writing activities. This detail adds depth to her character and invites viewers to ponder about her story. Hans Schopfer's attention to detail is evident throughout this piece - from the intricate rendering of jewelry to the delicate folds of fabric on the lady's dress. The use of light and shadow further enhances the realism captured by his brushstrokes. Overall, this portrait showcases not only Schopfer's technical expertise but also his ability to capture human emotion through artistry. It serves as a testament to his contribution as one of Germany's renowned old master painters during the 16th century.
