Portrait of Alida Christina Assink

Artist: Jan Adam Kruseman (Dutch, 1804-1862)

Date: 1833

Medium: Oil on canvas

Collection: Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, Netherlands

Description

Alida Assink is depicted from head to toe in her finest attire. This is exceptional, as the painter Kruseman reserved such a full-length portrait only for royal families. Assink was 23 when this portrait of her was painted. Her guardian, a wealthy landowner, had commissioned the work. The rural setting, with a hunting dog and a garden vase, harks back to the English portrait style, which Kruseman admired.
