_Jan Vermeer_ (Dutch: 1632-1675). _See 1383._

No. 15 at the Burlington Fine Arts Club, 1900, where it was thus

described: "A lady seated on the right facing to left; she wears a

yellow skirt with blue overdress, the sleeves trimmed with lace, and

turns her face to the spectator as she plays. Her clavichord stands

upon a marble table and is open, showing a landscape painted inside the

cover; a viol da gamba and bow are in the left-hand bottom corner, and

a blue and yellow curtain above; a picture with three figures hangs on

the wall behind. Signed to the right of the lady's head, J V Meer."
