En yngre Dame i Profil 1763

This 1763 etching by Danish artist W.A. Müller is a portrait of a young woman in profile. The subject is elegantly dressed in a fur-trimmed coat, her hair pulled back under a lacy cap. The simple yet powerful lines and the use of light and shadow give the work a sense of realism. This print, housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, is a valuable example of portraiture during the Rococo period in Denmark.
