Crispijn van de Passe (II)'s "Portretten van twee onbekende vrouwen, beiden als herderin" (1640) is an etching that presents two female portraits, both dressed as shepherdesses. The women are depicted in oval frames, creating an intimate portrait style. Both women hold shepherd's crooks. The woman on the left is adorned with a feathered hat and holds her hands in prayer, while the woman on the right carries a bouquet of flowers. These engravings, though small in size, were likely part of a larger series and were intended for a popular audience.
