Description
Allegory of Vanity by Jan Miense Molenaer centers on a young woman examining a small object or mirror near a table. Another woman looks on from behind, while an ornate vessel and candle stand nearby. Warm interior tones and close framing focus attention on the figures and objects. As a hand-painted oil-on-canvas reproduction, the painting emphasizes the reflective surface, delicate fabrics and thoughtful expressions.
