Zittende dame met tulband 1840 - 1842

"Zittende dame met tulband" (Seated Lady with Turban) is a lithograph created by the French artist Paul Gavarni between 1840 and 1842. The work is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The detailed drawing, featuring a woman with a distinctive, exaggerated nose, showcases Gavarni's keen eye for capturing the nuances of human expression. This lithograph is a compelling example of Gavarni's satirical approach to social commentary, using caricature to illuminate the absurdities of fashion and societal norms during the 19th century.
