EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Portrait of Elisabeth Troost" captures the elegance and grace of a Dutch woman in the 18th century. Painted by George van der Mijn, this oil on canvas print showcases Elisabeth Troost, daughter of renowned painter Cornelis Troost. Elisabeth's refined beauty is highlighted as she sits at a tea table within an opulent domestic interior. The composition exudes sophistication with its inclusion of exquisite Chinese porcelain, symbolizing her family's wealth and taste for luxury. Her attire reflects the fashion trends of the time, adorned in satin fabric that drapes gracefully around her figure. The artist pays attention to detail by emphasizing Elisabeth's status through subtle elements such as an ermine fur stole and a decanter placed nearby. These items further emphasize her position within bourgeois society. Notably, Elisabeth married Cornelis Ploos van Amstel, who was not only a collector but also admired her father's work. This connection adds depth to the painting as it represents both love and appreciation for art within their union. Displayed at Mauritshuis in The Hague, Netherlands, this masterpiece continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm and portrayal of aristocratic life during the Dutch Golden Age.
