"There is no exquisite beauty... without some strangeness in the proportion." — Edgar Allan Poe
That peculiar stare, aloof yet unrepentant, has captivated its bemused beholders for centuries. With this painting Petrus Christus revolutionized portraiture, not merely by shifting the sitter’s gaze towards the spectator but by infusing his work with an almost magical rendition of the subject’s inner spirit.
Portrait of a Young Lady has been described as being like a polished pearl lying on black velvet, and through the opalescent quality of her face permeates the contradictions of youth. These irreverent, gauging eyes, slanted and asymmetrical, fascinate like suspended soul fragments amidst the purity of her face.
