About Artwork: (1657) "A woman shown in three-quarter length turns her head slightly, meeting our gaze with a stern expression. She is wearing a black peaked cap, a black dress and flat white collar that extends below her shoulders. Her restrained clothes and the dark background give this portrait a formal and rather stiff character, but Jan de Braij still managed to convey a sense of the sitter’s personality. For years the painting was called Portrait of a Woman with a Black Cap, but we can now be certain that it shows the artist’s mother, Anna Westerbaen. The features of the woman resemble her likeness in other paintings and her age – 52 in 1657 – matches the painting’s inscription. Jan de Braij was one of the most important history painters of his time, but he was also a distinguished portrait painter. After the death of Frans Hals, de Braij became the favourite portraitist of the Haarlem elite." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
