''The Lady with a Fan'' is an oil painting by the Spanish court painter Diego Velázquez. It depicts a woman wearing a black lace veil on her head and a dark dress with a low-cut bodice. On the basis of its place in Velázquez's stylistic development, the portrait is thought to have been painted between 1638 and 1639.〔Veliz, Zahira. (Signs of identity in Lady with a Fan by Diego Velázquez: Costume and Likeness Reconsidered - Critical Essay, The Art Bulletin ), March, 2004, retrieved on: June 24, 2007. Stable URL: http://www.jstor.org/stable/3177401〕〔The (Wallace Collection website ) now says "c. 1640".〕 It is now in the Wallace Collection in London. ==The sitter== ''The Lady with a Fan'' is an enigmatic portrait. Although most other Velázquez portraits are easily recognizable likenesses of the members of the Spanish royal family, their courtiers and court servants, the sitter in ''Lady with a Fan'' has not yet been convincingly identified; there is a lack of accurate documentary information about the portrait. The details of the costume suggest that the sitter for ''The Lady with a Fan'' could be Marie de Rohan, the duchess of Chevreuse (1600–1679), because she was dressed according to French fashion of the late 1630s. There one piece of evidence that Velázquez painted a Frenchwoman, a letter dated January 16, 1638, which stated that he once portrayed the exiled duchess of Chevreuse, who was then living in Madrid under the protection of Philip IV, after having escaped from France disguised as a man. But some experts argued that no resemblance could be discerned with other portraits of the duchess, and it was assumed that the costume of the woman in ''The Lady with a Fan'' revealed a Spanish ''tapada'', which was a precursor to the ''majas'' of the 18th century.〔
