Lot Essay

The prime version of this portrait, held in a private collection, has been traditionally identified as Lady Margaret Sackville (1614-1676), however, Margaret was known to have fair hair, and this cannot be her likeness. (See O. Millar in S.J. Barnes et. al., Van Dyck, A Complete Catalogue of the Paintings, New Haven and London, 2004, p. 626, no. IV.262).
