"Vier opgetooide hoofden van dames" is a drawing by Ernst Ludwig Riepenhausen, created between 1775 and 1840. The work depicts four female heads, each wearing a different style of headdress, likely from the 18th or 19th centuries. This small-scale piece, measuring only 97 mm by 52 mm, showcases Riepenhausen's skill in capturing detail and expressing individual character through subtle variations in hairstyle and facial expressions. The drawing provides a glimpse into fashion trends of the period and highlights the artist's interest in portraiture and the human form.
