Portret van Lysbeth van Duvenvoorde (?-1472) (easel painting (painting by form); unknown; ca. 1430; Rijksmuseum (Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands); SK-C-1454; RM001.collect.4780)
Note: Although full-length portraits must have been produced on a large scale, among other things for wall and tomb paintings, it is unusual for such an early, autonomous portrait of an almost full-length figure to have survived. Most of the extant portraits from this early period consist of heads and busts. It is possible that there was a tradition of full-length marriage portraits in European painting. Other examples include Jan van Eyck's Arnolfini portrait of 1434, and the marriage portrait of a couple painted by an anonymous south German artist around 1470. Full-length figures, however, are more frequently found in miniatures, such as the portrait of Mary of Guelders in the prayer book of Mary of Guelders of c. 1415. Although the Rijksmuseum portrait was painted in oils, the parchment support makes it not unlikely that the artist had his roots in miniature painting. He was probably a local artist from one of the workshops in north or south Holland, where the couple lived.The support is a single sheet of parchment, and may be slightly trimmed at all sides. It has been laid down on plexiglass (34 x 21.7 cm). Neither a priming layer nor an underdrawing are visible to the naked eye nor with infrared reflectography. The paint layer was applied rather thickly, as in a panel painting. Mordant gilding was used in areas of gold (ornaments, jewellery etc.). The coat of arms was not reserved.
