Claude Corneille de Lyon, genannt Corneille de la Haye, 1500/10 Den Haag – 1575 Lyon, zugeschrieben und Atelier
PORTRAIT OF A LADY, TRADITIONALLY IDENTIFIED AS LOUISE DE HALLUIN Oil on top rounded wooden panel.
17.3 x 13.5 cm.
In rectangular frame partially gilded and painted.
The portrait could show Louise de Halluin, lady of Cipierro, which also hangs in the Art Insititut of Chicago (painted by Corneille de Lyon). She was the daughter of Antoine Halluin, lord of the manor of Pienne, and Louise de Crèvecoeur. She was married to Philibert de Marcilly, who was governor of the future King Charles IX.
The painting of his sister Jeanne was also painted by Corneille de Lyon, at about the same moment, namely before the wedding of the two sisters, thus allowing the inference of the dating of the portraits between 1553 and 1557.
The bust of the sitter to the right in a dress with a high collar and bulging shoulders, according to her time, and a pearl necklace around her neck. With her brown eyes she looks attentively out of the picture.
The identity of the lady is clear from the old inscription at the bottom of the replica, from the Gaignières collection, currently preserved in the National Museum of Versailles Palace.
