Vrouwelijke halffiguur met muts en cape 1883

"Vrouwelijke halffiguur met muts en cape" (1883) is an etching by Belgian artist Henri Rul, known for his portraiture and genre scenes. This work, measuring just 139mm by 100mm, depicts a woman's head and shoulders in profile, draped in a cape and wearing a cap. The artist's use of line and shading creates a sense of realism and depth, capturing the subject's thoughtful expression. The etching's intimate scale and focus on the individual suggest a personal or introspective subject matter, typical of Rul's work.
