    Yeah, I can see her and she's apparently a Middle Age/ International Gothic style portrait, looking to the brilliant colors and to her headpiece (an inverted trucated cone). The only departure from the traditional portraiture of those times is that they were usually profile portraits ...

    yes this is one of the rare times the portrait was done full face... thanks for your clarification as to its provenance

    Very cool, looks like a medieval flag shaken by the wind

    That's what art's about, isn't it -- at some point it's about the relationship between the art and the viewer, sort of like speed dating. (D Akey)
