Boerin uit Groningen before 1713

This etching, titled "Boerin uit Groningen" and created by Pieter van den Berge, is a depiction of two women from the province of Groningen in the Netherlands. The work, completed before 1713, is a fine example of the "costumes" genre popular in 17th and 18th century art. It displays the elaborate clothing worn by women in Groningen during the period. The precise details of the clothing, including the wide brimmed hat and the buttons, are rendered in the etching with remarkable precision. The work is currently on view at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
