What a fabulous mid #16thc portrait with a clear inscription statement: “Sophonisba Angussola Virgo made it herself 1554”. My guess is that this was a personally drafted meditational book by the then 22-year old with an unambiguous #herbook statement? @martinevanelk.bsky.social

Self-portrait, 1554, by #SofonisbaAnguissola (Italian, c. 1532–1625). On view in Room 6 at the Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna, www.khm.at/en/artworks/... #artherstory #womenartists

A bust length portrait against a greenish-brown backdrop of a young brown-haired white woman with large pale eyes, standing facing to the left edge of the painting, turning her head to her left to gaze at the viewer. Her dress is somber - she wears a dark dress and sleeves with discreet white trim, and no jewelry. Her left upper arm is visible, and her left hand (the elbow and forearm are cut off by the bottom edge of the artwork). In that hand she holds a small book open with her thumb; on the righthand page is her signature and the year (1554).

I am happy that this book is now published (in the series Connected Histories in the Early Modern World)! Performing India in Early Modern England 1575-1642 Commerce, Spectacle, and the Formation of the East India Company By Amrita Sen www.routledge.com/Performing-I...

Front cover of a book - the image in the top half appears to be an embroidery of 6 human figures in an outdoor scene at night, with trees.
