Busts of figures from the classical past were eminently suitable furnishings for a cabinet display. The artist, Lucas Faydherbe, was deeply influenced by the painter Rubens during the early part of his career, and this is clearly reflected in the composition and tone of this work. The attribution to Faydherbe derives from a comparison with a signed bust of Omphale in the Municipal Museum at Malines in Belgium, which also owns another version of the composition used here.
