Head turned to the right. Wearing rich clothes, embroidered with gold stitching. Around her neck and her head she wears expensive jewelry. Possibly the jewelry that she's received as a gift when she married Philip of Hohenlohe. The face is accurate and corresponds to the only other known portrait of her, which is located in the orphanage at Buren. |

| Date |
between 1580 and 1590 Date according to Museum Prinsenhof, Delft (verbal communication July 1996); Jonckheere 2007, who accepts the identification of the sitter as Maria van Oranje-Nassau, proposes a date of c. 1579, when Maria was 22-23 years old. The woman in the painting looks much older. [1] |
