Wоmаn Hоlding а Bаlance was painted byWidener Cоllection We see a room with plain-looking walls and soft lighting, where a woman is intent on completing a task with the objects on a table in front of her. A religious painting is on the wall behind her. Her demeanor is calm and her clothing is modest. A white veil covers her head, and a blue coat trimmed with white fur conceals all but a hint of her pregnant womb. Her face is open, visible, and appears very calm and content as she regards what appear to be jewels in front of her. The room is lit by a small crack of light coming through a gold-colored drapery in front of the only visible window. A framed painting hangs in prominent display on the wall behind and to her right.
