"Vrouw deelt horoscopen uit" is an etching by Monogrammist GGW, a little-known artist of the 1800s. The print depicts a bustling scene of a woman giving out horoscopes in a public square, drawing a crowd of curious onlookers. The detailed depiction of the characters and their interactions, along with the background of buildings and bustling street life, create a sense of realism that is typical of etching. The work highlights the societal interest in fortune-telling and the role of street performers in early 19th-century Dutch life.
