Petrus Christus was an Early Netherlandish painter who was active in Bruges and became the leading artist after the death of Jan van Eyck. His portrait of a Young Girl is regarded as one of the most exquisite portraits of the Renaissance. The young maiden has an intriguing stare upon the viewer and an enigmatic expression that is reserved, although accentuated with wisdom.
