Stored in the London National Gallery Lady with a fan – a typical custom portrait: there are no fortune tellers and drinkers, which the artist so loved to portray. From the canvas, a young charming woman looks at us with a slight smile.
She is wearing a strict black dress, which is decorated only with snow-white lace collar and cuffs. Especially sublime soft soft face that seems to float out of a neutral background, eyes that radiate warm and tender light, a slightly snub-nosed, thinly outlined nose, as if emphasizing her charming smile. Everything in this woman is simple, and everything is fine.
