Caption

Portrait of Alida Christina Assink, 1833. Dressed to the nines in the latest fashion, Alida Assink poses here for Kruseman, the society artist. Her clothes give her a fashionable shape: with her wide shoulders, puffed sleeves and hooped skirt, her waist seems tiny. The large belt clasp draws even more attention to her midriff. Kruseman was an admirer of British portraiture: the country setting, with hunting dog and garden vase are all borrowed from English examples.
