拍品專文

Brücker (op. cit.) compares this portrait to two other portraits of noble ladies from Frankfurt, Katharina Knoblauch (dated 1532, no. 40) and Margarethe von Rheim (dated 1533, no. 19).
The pendant to this portrait was on the art market in Switzerland, also dated 1532 and inscribed 'PHILIPPVS BVRCKHART DOCTOR AETATIS SVE 44' (K. Löcher in Sotheby's, 2000, loc. cit.). We are grateful to Mr. Jan van Helmont for identifying the von Erdenfels arms on the reverse.
