Portrait of a Lady is a 1640 oil by Jan Victors, a Dutch Golden Age work, depicting Glove, held at National Gallery of Victoria.
This portrait features a woman in a dark dress with a large, white collar and lace cuffs. She is holding a glove in her right hand and has a small, golden object in her left. The background is dark, with a hint of an arched doorway behind her. The woman's attire and the style of the painting suggest a formal, 17th-century setting. The level of detail in her clothing and accessories indicates a high level of craftsmanship.
