Twee portretbustes van Giulia Domna en Giulia Mamea 1640

This 17th-century engraving by Dutch artist Reinier van Persijn depicts two Roman women, Giulia Domna and Giulia Mamea. The engraving is done in black and white, with a focus on the detailed rendering of the women's faces and the drapery of their clothing. These engravings are a testament to Van Persijn's talent for capturing the essence of classical sculpture and his mastery of the art of printmaking. The artwork, housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the fascination with Roman antiquity during the Dutch Golden Age.
