About this work
A woman in a long red gown trimmed with gold sits behind a stone ledge, a red rose lying beside her hand as she raises a gilded goblet. A black-and-white pearl-edged hood frames her face above a heavy gold chain, and a red-and-gold heraldic banner with tasseled cords fills the dark space behind her.
Saturated reds and gold against near-black shadow give the picture a rich, jewel-like intensity, painted with the smooth, polished finish and precise detail of an old-master portrait. The steady, direct gaze and formal pose lend the scene a poised, ceremonial gravity.
