A fitting time to be writing about the Adoration of the Magi! Ghirlandaio’s altarpiece for the church of the Ospedale degli Innocenti remains my favourite (now in the Museo degli Innocenti)

If you like introductions, just read my bio 😜 suffice to say I do art, art history, early modern portraiture, lace history and Roman art.

Is it all about the goatee, or the ruff? I vote the insanely wide lace ruff 😍 A miniature by Nicholas Hilliard of Sir Walter Raleigh, 1585. Just 48x41mm!

My interest in historic lace goes back a long time. I've spent many years painting lace myself and was lucky to dive deeper into lace history with the help of the National Portrait Gallery in 2013. Read more about my lace adventures in that year here: sophieploeg.com/paintings/bp-t

Close up of a small painting by Gerard Dou 'Man smoking a Pipe' ca. 1650, oil on panel. He's looking bit quizzical. Loving the delicate brush marks and moulding of face and hair.
At the Rijksmuseum

Rather shocked-looking devil, crushed underfoot by the resurrected Christ along with death and worldly things: lovely detail in Hans Holbein's Allegory of the Old and New Testaments at the Scottish National Gallery!
