Item Details
Description
Lithographic print of painting by Lorenzo Costa entitled A Lady with a Lap-Dog, originally painted c.1500-1505
Probably purchased by Charles II (1630-85), recorded in the collection of Charles II at Whitehall c.1666.Oil on poplar panel. The style of costume and head band is typical of the costume of Northern Italy 1490-1505. Although the sitter remains unidentified there is speculation that she may be a member of the Bolognese or Mantuan Court. The left edge of the panel is bevelled at the back, an indication that suggests it may once have been hinged to form the right wing of a diptych, possibly celebrating a marriage. Were this to be the case, the lap dog would symbolise fidelity.
Print size inches: 7.2 x 9.4
