Portrait of a Woman is a 1656 unspecified by Unknown, a Baroque work, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
The painting depicts a woman seated in a chair, dressed in a black dress with a white collar and cuffs. Her right arm rests on the armrest, while her left hand holds a white cloth. The background features a dark curtain with a fringe at the top. The woman's attire and the style of the painting suggest a formal portrait from the 17th century. The use of dark colors and the woman's somber expression contribute to a sense of gravity and solemnity. This painting is characteristic of the Baroque movement, which emphasized dramatic lighting and intense emotions.
