Portrait of a Woman 31 - 1799

This stipple engraving, created by Francesco Bartolozzi, depicts a woman in a striking Renaissance-era costume. The delicate lines and soft shading of the stipple technique capture the subtle details of the woman's face and elaborate headdress. The piece is a testament to the artist's technical skill and the enduring allure of historical portraiture. This work, housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, is a fine example of 18th-century printmaking.
