About this work
A woman in profile wears an elaborate gold headdress crusted with jewels and pattern, her gaze directed off to the side. Below her, two pears and a split-open pomegranate sit in the foreground, flanked by pink lilies at each edge. A small separate portrait of a young man in a red cap and cloak occupies the upper right corner, while a key and fleur-de-lis fabric appear at the lower edge.
Surfaces are built up in patchwork textures of gold, ochre, and muted violet, evoking embroidered fabric and aged parchment rather than smooth paint. The dense, symbolic clutter of objects and richly worked surface give the portrait a hushed, dreamlike, tapestry-like quality.
