Collared


Michel Jansz van Miereveld - Portrait of a woman (1625)

More about this Dutch artist, and additional examples of his work at his Wikipedia page.   I think I'll write up the ruff as a separate post someday.

  1. Good grief. Painting just one frill of the collar must have taken _ages_.

    Incredible photo-like quality. I'm beyond impressed.
