Princess and attendants in a courtyard

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 458

The artist rendered the veil of this elegant, bejeweled lady as a diaphanous cloth through which her long braided tresses can be seen. She holds a flower as her maid offers a garland of blossoms. In the distance a group of women play music on string and percussion instruments.
