Wenceslaus Hollar, a prolific Czech-born artist who worked primarily in England, created a detailed watercolor drawing depicting two women in traditional dress. The artwork, currently housed at the Städel Museum, highlights the diverse clothing styles of the time. One woman wears a large, round hat, while the other holds a basket. The meticulous detail and muted color palette are characteristic of Hollar's work, capturing the everyday lives of people in the 17th century.
