What the museum label doesn't tell you
Look at her right hand: it grazes the table, almost touching the gold coins without picking them up. No greed, no shame, just distance. And one fact makes that distance stranger: Holbein traced this exact outline, flipped, to later paint Venus. So the courtesan who charges for love and the goddess who embodies it for free share the same underlying drawing. The model, likely Magdalena Offenburg, lent her silhouette to two opposite myths without leaving the studio. Which version do you think actually captures her, and which one just borrows her shape?
