Portret van een vrouw met handschoenen en ketting met houder voor een bezoarsteen (?) 1795

This 1795 portrait of a woman by Jan Gerard Waldorp depicts an elegant figure in a dark dress adorned with intricate lace detailing. The woman's ruffled collar and elaborate headdress reflect the fashion of the era. Her delicate hands, holding a lace-trimmed handkerchief, add a sense of grace to the composition. This masterful black and white print highlights the artist's keen eye for detail and ability to capture the essence of his subject. Known for his portraits and historical scenes, Waldorp's work often showcased the opulence and refinement of Dutch society. This piece, now held in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies Waldorp's skill and contribution to the art of portraiture.
