Oude vrouw uit Normandië 1770

Johann Georg Wille's 1770 engraving *Oude vrouw uit Normandië* portrays an elderly woman from Normandy. The print, which measures 253 mm in height and 187 mm in width, is a testament to Wille's mastery of the art of engraving. The detail of the woman's wrinkled face and the texture of her clothing showcases Wille's skill in representing light and shadow. The artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers viewers a glimpse into the lives of ordinary people during the 18th century.
