This etching by Gerard Valck, created between 1694 and 1715, depicts a woman in elaborate clothing standing in a landscape. The woman is identified as "Dame Ragonde," a Dutch name. The detail and intricacy of the woman's dress, particularly the embroidery and the embellishments on her skirt, are characteristic of etching and an example of Rococo style, which was popular in the 18th century. This artwork offers insight into the fashion and social practices of the period.
