17th Century Old Master paintings and sumptuous Jacobean styled costumes are some of the associations
had and the inspiration for a series of paintings displayed at the National Portrait Gallery as part of the BP
Portrait Award 2014 exhibition.
After winning the BP Travel Award in 2013 Sophie Ploeg set out to research how lace and fabrics were
represented in early 17th century portraiture. Inspired, she created a series of 10 new paintings which tries to
connect women and style from the early 17th century with women of today. Her book tells the story of her year
and catalogues the paintings.

Originaire de la région du Puy en Velay, célèbre pour sa dentelle, je suis captivée et curieuse de découvrir un tel travail...
