Christoph Krieger's woodcut print, *Lottharinga*, from 1598, depicts a woman dressed in the fashionable attire of the late 16th century. The woman stands in profile, facing the viewer. She wears a decorative hat, a long gown with a patterned skirt and a decorative neckline, and a cloak. The woodcut is framed by a decorative border. This small-scale print would have been created for a book or pamphlet. The image is typical of the 16th century woodcut style.
