English: "This work in the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum was attributed to various anonymous masters before Isolde Lübbeke associated it with an anonymous German painter of the Ansbach court, active around 1490. The sitter stands out against a pale blue background. Shown as richly dressed, the artist particularly emphasises the striking brocade of her gown and the wimple that falls down over her shoulders in a slightly stiff manner. Both her necklace and the carnation that she holds are significant elements given that the presence of the flower and the wimple suggest that the panel may have had a pair. In addition, the gold chain with its two pendants, one of the Virgin and Child and the other of a swan, indicate that the sitter belonged to the Order of the Swan. Founded in 1440 by Frederick II of Brandenburg, this religious Order dedicated to the Virgin reached its peak of prestige and popularity in the late 15th century." [1]
