De dwerg Amazoonse Struik-rooveres, 1720 1718 - 1720

"De dwerg Amazoonse Struik-rooveres" is an etching by Dutch artist Joost van Sassen created between 1718 and 1720. This small-scale artwork depicts a caricature of a woman, a "dwarf Amazon" who is holding a machete and is standing in a dramatic pose. It appears to be a satirical illustration of the Amazonian warriors, famous for their fierce fighting skills and stature. The artwork is a part of a larger series of illustrations, perhaps depicting different types of women from various cultures, challenging the typical representation of women in art.
