Anne of Austria

Balthasar Moncornet

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a portrait from the waist up of a woman. She is positioned slightly to the side, looking towards the viewer. Her facial features include full lips, a straight nose, and arched eyebrows. Her hair is styled in tight curls that fall around her shoulders. She is dressed in an elaborate gown with an ornate bodice adorned with jewels and fine details. A necklace made of pearls is visible around her neck, and she wears a matching pair of earrings. The backdrop is a draped fabric with a pattern of fleur-de-lis, and to the top left, there is an emblem with a crown. The background also includes a cloud-like design.
