Portrait of a young woman 1480

This 15th-century portrait, attributed to the Northern Renaissance painter Hans Memling, showcases a young woman, likely of noble birth, in a detailed and naturalistic style. The subject is depicted in a graceful pose, her delicate features illuminated with soft light. The use of vibrant colors, particularly the deep crimson of her gown, enhances the overall realism of the painting. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate patterns of her clothing and the delicate rose she holds. This piece is representative of Memling’s signature style, characterized by its refined elegance and attention to minute detail.
