Twee vrouwen 1502 - 1532

"Twee vrouwen" (Two Women) is a woodcut print by the Italian Renaissance artist Ugo da Carpi, created between 1502 and 1532. The artwork depicts two women, one standing behind the other, with only their heads and shoulders visible. Da Carpi was a pioneer of the chiaroscuro woodcut technique, using multiple blocks to create tonal shading and depth. This small-scale print, measuring only 115 mm in height and 57 mm in width, demonstrates his mastery of this innovative process.
