Barbara Vetter (d.1568/69) Attributed to Hans Holbein the Elder (1460-1524) Oil on panel, before 1522 Born into an aristocratic Augsburg family, Vetter’s father was the city’s Mayor when she married her second husband Martin Weiß, the adopted son of a local merchant, in 1520. The ring that she holds supports the interpretation of this work as a marriage portrait.
