An Young and Old Woman from Bergen op Zoom 1520

Albrecht Durer's "An Young and Old Woman from Bergen op Zoom" is a 1520 silverpoint drawing that depicts two women, one young and one old, from the Netherlands. Durer, known for his meticulous detail and mastery of linear perspective, captured the subjects' contrasting expressions and features with striking accuracy. This work, now housed in the Musée Condé in Chantilly, France, showcases Durer's keen observation of human nature and his ability to translate it into compelling visual form.
