Vestindo o nu

ca. 1661
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 621
Originário de Bruxelas, Sweerts trabalhou em Roma entre 1646 e 1654. Depois de regressar a Bruxelas mudou-se para Amsterdã, onde existem registros de sua presença em 1661. Provavelmente pintou este quadro muito pessoal na Holanda, onde seus atos de abnegação e caridade eram notórios. Em 1662 viajou com missionários franceses para a Pérsia, e depois foi sozinho para Goa, na Índia, onde morreu em 1664. A austeridade de Sweerts em sua vida privada nunca afetou o extraordinário refinamento de seu tratamento da luz, cor e expressão que caracterizam suas obras.
