"Staande vissersvrouw met mand op het hoofd" (Standing fisherwoman with a basket on her head) is an etching by an anonymous Dutch artist, created between 1630 and 1664. The artwork depicts a woman standing on a beach, balancing a basket on her head and looking towards the horizon where ships can be seen in the distance. The etching is in the collection of the Rijksmuseum and showcases the Dutch Golden Age's focus on everyday life and scenes of labor. The woman's simple attire and the detailed depiction of her surroundings create a realistic and evocative portrait of a working-class individual.
