Hello George,

Not sure how this works yet. Went back to site to answer. Maybe could have
just clicked “reply” from email. Anyway, I posted a link to a photo. Don’t
know if it came through.

The picture is unsigned. Oil on canvass.  I figured my best bet would be to
start with a quick identification of the monastic order and to draw
timelines on the garments. Unfortunately I am unable to locate pictorial
reference material on monastic vestments. At least not showing this one.
Same regarding widow garments, since one flows from the other. Can’t find a
pictorial history. The picture has some similarities with works by Rubens,
such as in the eye treatment.

Just not doing well on this one so far.

Thank you.
