Marchesa Brigida Spinola Doria by Peter Paul Rubens (Flemish) - Oil on canvas / 1606 - National Gallery of Art (Washington, D. C.) #womeninart #peterpaulrubens #art #painting #womensart #portraitofawoman #flemish #nationalgalleryofart #rubens #fineart #newlywed #artwork #oilpainting #flemishart
During a stay in Genoa, Italy in 1606, Peter Paul Rubens painted this portrait of Marchesa Brigida Spinola Doria. The 22-year-old newlywed was from one of the republic's leading noble families. The imposing setting and the marchesa's aristocratic appearance leave little doubt that she was a person of wealth and status. Rubens integrated light and color, as well as the marchesa's pose and the dynamic diagonals of the architecture, to enliven her stately image. Light flooding into the scene creates boldly expressive folds in her heavy satin dress, while the red of the drape adds dramatic emphasis. The direction of her gaze and the perspective of the architecture indicate that the painting was meant to be hung high on a wall—well above the viewer. The marchesa's young face, animated by her large, keen brown eyes and gentle smile, is set off by her enormous yet elegant ruff. Her commanding presence is further accentuated by the glowing satin, the lace of her gown, her jewels, and the elaborate hair ornament crowning her carefully curled locks. Behind her, the rich luster of the marble and stone of a palazzo add to the sense of limitless luxury. The Spinola family, major art patrons in Genoa, derived their affluence from mercantile and banking enterprises. It was the norm for families to consolidate their wealth through intermarriage, and Brigida Spinola married her cousin Giacomo Massimiliano Doria in 1605. Widowed in 1613, she later married the widower Giovanni Vincenzo Imperiale, a senator of the Genoese republic who was also devoted to poetry and art collecting.

Also, scholars suggest these are possibly an extinct Moroccan subspecies, but I think they're just saying that to excuse that he got their faces real weird.
