"Hispana m(ulier)" is a 16th-century etching by the Italian artist Enea Vico. The work depicts a Spanish woman in profile, standing with her right hand raised, wearing a large hat and a long, flowing robe. The etching, part of a series of portraits, is characterized by detailed lines and delicate shading, creating a realistic and expressive representation of its subject. The inscription at the bottom of the artwork, "Hispana m(ulier)", emphasizes the woman's Spanish identity. The etching can be found at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, a testament to Vico's talent in capturing individual figures with evocative detail.
