This etching, "Gerda Grönberg II," is a powerful portrait by Swedish artist Anders Zorn. Created in 1892, the artwork depicts a woman, possibly Gerda Grönberg, the artist's muse, in profile, rendered with masterful use of light and shadow. Zorn's signature etching style is evident in the bold lines and expressive strokes that capture the sitter's enigmatic gaze and the atmosphere of the scene. The image is currently part of the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago.
