Dame in stoel gezeten 1901

"Dame in stoel gezeten" is a 1901 etching by German artist Heinrich Reifferscheid (1872-1945). The artwork portrays a seated woman in profile, dressed in traditional clothing, with a focused and contemplative expression. This small etching demonstrates Reifferscheid's mastery of light and shadow, creating a sense of depth and dimensionality despite its small scale. The subject matter, a seated woman, suggests a possible connection to Dutch Golden Age portraiture, often featuring individuals of simple means. The etching's size and subject matter would have likely been appreciated by a private collector interested in intimate, expressive portraits.
