This drawing by Christoph Schwarz depicts Maria Duchess of Brunswick, who was born Duchess of Wurttemburg. It is a close-up portrait of Maria, with her head turned slightly to the right. Her long hair cascades down her chest. Maria is wearing a simple cap, adorned with small decorative elements, typical of the fashion of the period. The drawing is part of the collection of The Art Institute of Chicago. It is a fine example of Renaissance portraiture, focusing on realism and capturing the sitter's likeness.
