EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Portrait of the Wife of Jorg Fischer at Age 34" takes us back to the year 1512. Painted by Holbein the Elder, Hans (1460/5-1524), this oil on wood masterpiece measures 35x26.6 cm and is currently housed in the Kunstmuseum in Basel, Switzerland. The subject of this painting is a woman named Maria Fischer, wife of Jorg Fischer. At age 34, she exudes an air of elegance and grace that transcends time. Dressed in a stunning gothic-inspired costume, her half-length figure dominates the canvas. Holbein's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; he captures Maria's delicate features with remarkable precision. The blackwork embroidery on her dress adds depth and texture to the composition while showcasing his mastery as a painter. Though there has been speculation about possible attribution to Hans Burgkmair, it remains uncertain whether he had any involvement in creating this exquisite piece. As we gaze upon this Renaissance gem from centuries past, we are transported into Maria Fischer's world – a world where beauty meets artistry and history intertwines with human emotion. This portrait serves as a testament to both Holbein's skill as an artist and Maria's timeless allure.
