"Portrait of a Maid of Honour to Infanta Isabella", 1623–1626Artist / Peter Paul Rubens (1577–1640)👼👼👼Oil on panel 63.5 × 47.8 cmThis painting stands out in Rubens’ oeuvre as a rare foray into the psychological portrait genre. According to official attribution, it depicts one of the ladies-in-waiting to Spanish Infanta Isabella Clara Eugenia.The work is neither signed nor dated, leading to ongoing debate among Western art historians regarding its authorship—though there is general agreement it originates from Rubens’ circle. The identity of the sitter remains uncertain as well.There is no established title for this piece in Western art literature. Some suggest the subject may be Rubens’ elder daughter, Clara Serena, who had already passed away by the time the painting was created.WhisperStroke
