EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning full-length portrait, painted by Mattheus Verheyden in the mid-18th century, captures the elegance and grace of Maria Hartmansdr de Custer(e), wife of Willem Kettingh. The portrait, which is now housed in the Rijksmuseum in the Netherlands, showcases Maria's timeless beauty and fashionable attire of the era. Maria's dress, made of black fabric, is adorned with intricate lace and trim, adding to the overall elegance of the piece. Her hair is styled in an elaborate updo, held in place with a decorative hairpiece and adorned with a cascade of pearls and carnations. A pearl necklace, likely a prized possession, adds a touch of luxury to her outfit. The painting also showcases Maria's connection to nature, with a bouquet of flowers in her hand and a plant in the background. The use of oil on canvas and the meticulous attention to detail in the painting further highlight Verheyden's masterful skills as a painter. This portrait is a testament to the fashion and heritage of the Dutch Low Countries during the 18th century, providing a glimpse into the lives of the wealthy and well-connected members of society. The painting's enduring beauty and the story it tells make it a valuable addition to any art collection or museum.
