Jonge vrouw met muts en krullend haar 1768 - 1827

This etching, created by Cornelis van (II) Cuylenburgh between 1768 and 1827, depicts a young woman wearing a cap and with curly hair. The artist, a Dutch engraver born in 1758, is known for his portraits and landscapes. The woman, who stares directly at the viewer, is depicted in a simple but elegant style. This artwork is a fine example of the realism popular in Dutch art during the 18th century, and its small size makes it an intimate and engaging portrait. The etching is part of the Rijksmuseum's collection and measures 85 mm in height and 60 mm in width.
