A quick
post about a painting that caught my eye.
Despite this painting's title I don't think this woman looks all that
old!
This
painting is no spring chicken either – it was done in the 1460's. Unlike most other portraits of the time the
subject is not looking right at you. I
think the sitter's eyes have seen a lot.
And the way the headdress is drawn is just fab.
To see the
original you would have to go to the Museum
of Fine Arts in Houston Texas.
