Portrait of Suzanne of Bourbon 1498

This portrait of Suzanne of Bourbon, painted in 1498 by Jean Hey, depicts the young girl in a simple white dress and cap. Suzanne's delicate features, rendered with a softness that is typical of the Northern Renaissance, are set against a dark background, highlighting her youthful innocence and the fragility of her age. The painting is a fine example of the intimate and devotional portraits that were popular in the late 15th century, showcasing Hey's mastery of detail and subtle realism. This small-scale work, now housed in the Louvre Museum, stands as a testament to Hey's talent and the artistic standards of his time.
