## Artwork

- Artist: [BRAY, Salomon de](<https://beta.wga.hu/artists/bray-salomon-de-r59c007f44ff074>)
- Date: 1601-1650

## Commentary

Though the painting has always been taken for a portrait, it is more likely to be a &#39;tronie&#39;, a study of a woman in exotic dress. The artist painted her without attributes or accessories, and therefore did not intend her to represent a specific historical, or allegorical figure.
