EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of a young girl in the early seventeenth century, holding a tennis racquet with grace and poise. Painted by Cornelis de Vos or an artist from his circle, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 57.7 x 46.3 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The fair-haired subject gazes directly at the camera, exuding confidence and elegance. Her attire, featuring a delicate lace collar and neck ruff, reflects the fashion of the baroque era. The artist skillfully portrays every intricate detail of her clothing, highlighting their fine craftsmanship. With her blonde hair cascading down her shoulders, she stands tall as an emblematic figure of beauty during that time period. This portrait showcases not only the talent of Flemish artists but also their ability to capture human emotion through art. The inclusion of sports equipment adds an interesting element to this composition - it suggests that even in those times, girls were encouraged to engage in physical activities such as tennis. It serves as a reminder that women have always been capable athletes throughout history. Overall, this artwork exemplifies the mastery of portraiture during the seventeenth century while offering us glimpses into society's values and interests at that time.
