Vrouw met een grote hoed 1727 - 1755

"Vrouw met een grote hoed" (Woman with a large hat) is an etching created by French artist Francois Boucher between 1727 and 1755. The piece showcases Boucher's mastery of line and detail, capturing the essence of a woman's profile, partially obscured by a large, wide-brimmed hat. The etching, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, highlights Boucher's interest in the Rococo style, characterized by delicate lines, soft curves, and a focus on the elegant and the charming.
