Nôla Pearl Necklace

Portrait of a Woman, 1653

Adriaen Hanneman’s painting “Portrait of a Woman”, displayed at the Moscow Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts, enchants by the woman’s independent and strong gaze. Everything is perfect about this portrait: the hair, neatly arranged, the posture, the lace, and, of course, the jewelry – especially the pearl necklace. Pearls, always considered a symbol of purity and grandeur, remain classics to the present days.
