Drie vrouwen c. 1670 - 1706

This anonymous etching, titled "Drie vrouwen" ("Three Women") was created sometime between 1670 and 1706. The artwork, currently located in the Rijksmuseum, depicts three women in a variety of poses. The woman on the left is in motion, her dress flowing behind her. The central woman stands calmly, her gaze directed to the side, and the woman on the right carries a basket, creating a sense of realism. This type of study, showcasing human figures in different positions and activities, was common during the Baroque period and served as a tool for artists to understand human anatomy and movement.
