This colourful female portrait is believed to be painted somewhere around 1490 - 1500 in the Northern Italian city of Milan. The unidentified sitter is dressed exactly as it was common in that region in that exact period of time:
In Renaissance epoch women did usually grow their hair naturally long. They used to tide it up close to the head and cover with various snoods or veils.




This Art Nouveau building (jugendstil) was designed in 1904 by the architect Mikhail Eisenstein (1867—1921).
The building is decorated with figures and scenes from ancient mythology. It is dominated by a large mascaron representing Apollo, god of the sun, which is a symbolism dating from medieval times.

Mascaron from Rybnik (Poland)
In architecture, a mascaron ornament is a face, usually human, sometimes frightening or chimeric whose function was originally to frighten away evil spirits so that they would not enter the building.[1] The concept was subsequently adapted to become a purely decorative element. The most recent architectural style to extensively employ mascarons was Beaux Arts.[2][3]
