One of the best works of the artist. On the portrait of the girl, brushed and dressed in elegant silk dresses, like court ladies, posing for the artist.
But trying to maintain the “adult” seriousness, can not hold back the childish spontaneity, a sly smile on pink, affable faces, full of life, fun and glee.
For this portrait, Van Dyck found a subtle and delicate range of colors. He intentionally singled out the light figures of the girls on the dark background of the wall, which makes them light and bright, luminous.
