Willem Adrianus Grondhout's "Portret van een onbekende vrouw" is a small etching, a printmaking technique involving an acid bath, executed in a realistic style. The artwork features a woman's profile, her face partially obscured by a hat, with the artist's signature inscribed on the bottom right corner. The etching is a testament to Grondhout's talent for capturing likeness and detail in this intimate portrait. The work, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, dates from the final years of the artist's career, showcasing the refined techniques he developed over his artistic journey.
