''Portrait of a Woman Standing'' is a painting by the Dutch Golden Age painter Frans Hals, painted in 1610–1615 and now in Chatsworth House. It is considered a pendant portrait, but the sitter is unknown and therefore the pendant is not certain. ==Painting == This painting was documented by Hofstede de Groot in 1910, who wrote: " PORTRAIT OF A WOMAN STANDING. B. 145 ; M. 197. Almost three-quarter-length. She is turned three-quarters left, and looks at the spectator. Her left hand grasps her gold chain ; the right hand is extended before her. She wears a lace-trimmed cap, a black silk dress, a ruff, and lace wristbands. To the left is a coat-of-arms, which has been repainted. This is not, as has been assumed, a pendant to 287. It was painted about the years 1630-35. Inscribed near the coat-of-arms, "aeta suae 37" ; panel, 37 inches by 28 inches (within the frame). Exhibited at the Whitechapel Art Gallery, London, 1904, No. 284. In the collection of the Duke of Devonshire, London.〔(Hofstede de Groot ) on Portrait of a Woman Standing; catalog number 382〕 In 1974 Seymour Slive listed the painting as the pendant of ''A Man Holding a Skull'' and claimed then that despite cleaning of the coat of arms and recent documents the provenance was still inconclusive, and he read the inscription as "aeta suae 31", leading him to conclude the woman was aged 31 at marriage rather than 37.〔Frans Hals, by Seymour Slive, 1974 a catalog raisonné of Hals works by Seymour Slive: Volume Three, the catalogue, National gallery of Art: Kress Foundation, Studies in the History of European Art, London - Phaidon Press, 1974 on Portrait of a Woman Standing; catalog number 3, page 2〕 Slive felt the painting could be dated to Hals' earliest period but felt there was too little "Hals juvenalia" to date it with certainty before 1610. In 1989 Claus Grimm listed it again as a pendant of the ''Man Holding a Skull'' but felt that it may have been painted somewhat later, but agreed with Slive that the period was before 1620.〔Frans Hals The Complete Work, 1989, a catalog raisonné of Hals works by Claus Grimm, catalog number 7〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Portrait of a Woman Standing」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
