"Vrouw met gevogelte en een mand eieren uit Karaman" is an engraving by Léon Davent, a Flemish artist who lived from 1540 to 1556. Created between 1555 and 1568, the artwork depicts a woman from Karaman, Turkey, dressed in traditional clothing and carrying a chicken, a basket of eggs, and a flatbread. This engraving is a fascinating glimpse into the lives of women in 16th-century Turkey and exemplifies the artistic style of Davent, known for his detailed and expressive portrayals of everyday life. This small-scale engraving, measuring 274 mm in height and 172 mm in width, is a testament to Davent's talent for capturing the essence of his subjects.
