The painting “Ritratto di bambina di casa Redetti” by Moroni (Portrait of a child of the House of Redetti) is particularly bright.
As you can see, the little girl is dressed after the Spanish fashion of the time, just like the adults. The ocher shade of her dress contrasts with the white of the underskirt, the bright appearance of which suggests the fabric might have been satin. The pleated fabric collar frames the child’s face, with an expression somewhere between shy and proud to be posing for a portrait.
