Portrait of a Woman with a Man at a Casement Fra Filippo Lippi Italian ca. 1440 In Italian painting, this is the earliest surviving double portrait, the first to show sitters in a domestic setting, and the first with a view onto a landscape. The woman is dressed in French-inspired attire and her sleeve is embroidered with letters spelling "lealta" (faithful), a clue that the man appearing in the window is possibly her betrothed. He holds the Scolari familys coat of arms, evidence that the two figures may be Lorenzo di Ranieri Scolari and Angiola di Bernardo Sapiti, who married around 1436.

Merrymakers at Shrovetide ca. 1616-17 Frans Hals Dutch Shrovetide, now better known as Mardi Gras, is the traditional period of indulgence before the fasting and self-discipline of Lent. In the seventeenth-century Netherlands, it was also the occasion for theatrical performances by the painters guilds. Here, Hals depicts two stock figures from these plays, Hans Worst, with a sausage dangling from his cap, and Pekelharing, who sports a garland of salted fish and eggs. They flank a richly dressed girl (probably a boy in drag, as women were not permitted to perform on these occasions). Still life elements litter the foreground, evoking both the traditional foods of the festival and an abundance of erotic innuendo.
