Judith Leyster - Self-Portrait

One of only two women accepted as a master by Haarlem's painter's guild during the 17th century, Leyster specialized in paintings of what were called "the merry company" - musicians, masked revelers and the like. This self-portrait shows off not only herself at work, casually grasping a fistful of brushes, but also her specialty, as she is portrayed working on a "merry company" piece. Leyster is also dressed formally, so as to associate painting with the then-finer artistic pursuits of literature, philosophy and so forth.
