Dating from the same period as Drost’s masterpiece, 'Bathsheba' (1654; Paris, Louvre), the 'Young Woman in a Brocade Gown' displays the same creamy flesh tones and sensuous treatment of drapery. Despite bearing a false Rembrandt signature (removed in 1976) the picture was acquired as a work by Drost by Sir Richard Wallace.
