Vrouw met grote kanten kraag en gekruld haar 1647

"Vrouw met grote kanten kraag en gekruld haar," a 1647 etching by Wenceslaus Hollar, is a detailed portrait of a woman. Her features are rendered with meticulous care, and her elaborate lace collar and curled hair are depicted with great precision. The work is housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, and is a prime example of Hollar's skill in capturing the fashion and social customs of his time. This small-scale work showcases Hollar's mastery of etching, a technique that he employed throughout his prolific career.
