"Portrait of a Lady in a Veil" (1643-1674) by Thomas Mathisen (1615-1674) is a striking oil painting of a woman dressed in elaborate attire, with a veil covering her hair. The sitter's delicate features are emphasized by the veil, and her somber expression adds to the mystery of the portrait. Mathisen's skillful use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and realism. The artwork is currently on display at SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Denmark. This painting is a fine example of 17th-century portraiture, showcasing Mathisen's mastery of the genre.
