Morning Modelbuch (1/15/2019)

I can’t get over the colors in this painting. The vivid green of the dress, blue in the balzo, the red curtain, and the incredible yellow with red partlet. Definitely one to go have a look at the enlarged scan at the museum. Veneto’s Portrait of a Lady in a Green Dress dated 1530 held in the Timkin Museum in San Diego, CA http://www.timkenmuseum.org/collection/portrait-of-a-lady-in-a-green-dress/

Pattern from Matteo Pagano’s 1554 _Ornamento delle belle and virtuoso donne_ https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/660207
