"Efteråret. Portræt af Simon Paullis hustru, Elisabeth Fabricius" (Autumn. Portrait of Simon Paullis wife, Elisabeth Fabricius) is a 1648 etching by Albert Haelwegh (1598-1673). The print depicts Elisabeth Fabricius, standing in a landscape with a child, picking fruit from a tree. The scene is characteristic of the Dutch Golden Age's focus on everyday life, with a detailed representation of the natural world. The inscription "AUTVMNVS" indicates the season, referencing the cycle of nature and the passing of time. The etching's composition and use of light and shadow bring a sense of depth and realism to the scene, highlighting Haelwegh's skill as a printmaker.
