From the collection of Bavarian State Painting Collections
Ligsalz-Bildnisdiptychon: Apollonia Ligsalz, geb. Ridler is a 1540 unspecified by Hans Muelich, a Mannerism work, held at Bavarian State Painting Collections.
The painting depicts a woman dressed in black, with a white head covering and a ring on her finger. She stands in front of a green curtain, with a landscape visible on the left side of the image. The woman's attire is formal, and her expression is serious. The painting's style is characteristic of the Northern Renaissance, with attention to detail and realism. The use of color and composition creates a sense of depth and dimensionality. To learn more about the artist's use of chiaroscuro, explore the works of Hans Muelich.
