Portrait of a Lady, Cornelis Jonson van Ceulen I, oil on panel
A creek passes through the middle of the composition. Trees and grassy fields populate both sides of the bank.
Palamedesz was a painter. He is shown here slightly turned to the proper right with curly hair and a small moustache. He is dressed with a frilled collar and long cloak. He leans with his proper left arm onto a slab of stone. This image is from the Gillis Hendricx edition of the Iconography (Icones Principum Virorum Doctorum, Pictorum Chalcographorum Statuorum nec non Amatorum Pictoriae Artis Numero Centum), 1632-44.
The winged angel is dressed in long robes, standing, and gesturing with its right arm, the hand of which is now missing.
