  • As requested the other day, two wonderful examples of Northern Renaissance hairstyles. Also notice the dress (and the jacket in the first painting), the sleeves, the gloves, the necklaces! By Lucas Cranach the Elder, Judith Victorious with a hairnet and the same Judith with her hair let down. Both paintings were made around 1530.
