En bedende kvinde, en af tre tondovingnetter 1792

This etching, "En bedende kvinde, en af tre tondovingnetter," (A Praying Woman, one of three tondo vignettes) was created in 1792 by Danish artist Gerhard Ludvig Lahde (1765-1833). The work depicts a woman in a flowing gown, kneeling in prayer, and is framed within an oval, surrounded by foliage and a distant landscape. The piece is a testament to Lahde's mastery of line and detail and exemplifies the Romanticism of the period. This miniature work is a fine example of Lahde’s printmaking skills.
