Rubens’s portraits of friends and family members are some of his most appealing paintings to a modern eye. This intimate likeness probably represents a sister of Helena Fourment, Rubens’s second wife and the youngest of the Antwerp silk merchant Daniel Fourment’s seven daughters. Rubens shifted the veil worn by the sitter in the course of working on the painting, and its earlier contours have become visible over time.
