Reinier Craeyvanger's "Vrouw voor een deur" (Woman Before a Door) is a small-scale, finely detailed etching on paper. It depicts a woman in silhouette standing in a doorway, her body illuminated by a faint light source, highlighting the interplay of light and shadow in the composition. This intimate scene, possibly captured during a moment of solitude, showcases Craeyvanger's skill as a master printmaker, exploring themes of domesticity and the fleeting nature of daily life. This artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
