Portret van een vrouw 1793

"Portret van een vrouw" is an engraving by Govert Kitsen, a Dutch artist, created in 1793. The artwork, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, portrays a woman with a wide-brimmed hat and intricately styled hair, typical of portraiture during the late 18th century. Kitsen's masterful use of fine lines and shading brings the subject to life with striking realism. This small, yet detailed, work exemplifies the artistic trends of the time and showcases the talent of the Dutch engraver.
