Portret van een vrouw 1710 - 1772

"Portret van een vrouw," is a graphite drawing by Petrus Johannes van Reysschoot from 1710-1772. The drawing depicts a woman with her hair up and wearing a lace-trimmed gown, seated in a relaxed pose. This artwork is a fine example of portraiture from the 18th century. The artist's skill in capturing the sitter's likeness and the delicate detail of the clothing are remarkable. The use of graphite creates a soft, realistic rendering of the subject, highlighting the textures of the fabric and the subtle nuances of the woman's facial features. Van Reysschoot's work is known for its realism and attention to detail, which can be seen in this masterful drawing.
