This etching by Isaac Ledeboer, created between 1718 and 1720, depicts a caricature of a woman wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a dress, with an exaggeratedly large head and facial features. The etching, titled "De dwerg Amazonia Furia," is a satirical commentary on the figure of Amazonia Furia, possibly a real person, through the use of humor and exaggeration. The work is a classic example of 18th-century Dutch graphic art, known for its use of detailed engravings and satirical content.
