Elegant geklede vrouw met een medaillon 1680 - 1713

This etching by Dutch artist Pieter Schenk depicts a woman in an elegant pose, seated in a chair with her hands clasped. Her elaborate dress, with its intricate patterns and lace details, exemplifies the fashion trends of the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Schenk's meticulous attention to detail and use of light and shadow create a sense of realism and depth, highlighting the woman's refined elegance. This print, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the sartorial world of the Dutch Golden Age.
