Hans Roth [obverse]

Deutsche Malerei 1400–1532, 1527

This painting shows a person standing in front of a window, turned slightly to the left. The person has fair skin, light blue eyes, and reddish-brown hair that falls just above their ears. Their pink lips are set in a neutral expression. They wear a flat black hat with a wide rim, and a brown fur mantle over a black garment with a tall white ruffled collar. They are holding a round orange fruit in their left hand, with a small gold ring on their pointer finger. The background on the right appears to be a green wall decorated with a faint yellow pattern. On the left is a window or opening that shows a landscape with a blue sky over a rocky mountain with green trees and small houses with red roofs. Below the mountain is a blue river and a brown road with a rider on horseback visible in the distance.
