Elisabeth Claire Tardieu's etching *La Marchande de Moutarde Allemande* (1761) depicts a woman standing in a room with a broom in her hand. The figure is dressed in a long skirt and a jacket, with a large, basket-like hat on her head. The artist depicts the woman as the vendor of German mustard, who is a stern-faced older woman. The etching is a fine example of the Rococo style, which was popular in France in the 18th century.
