Crispijn van de Passe (II) created this double portrait etching, "Portretten van twee courtisanes," in 1635. The two women, "Schoon Barbertien" and "La Belle Angloise," are depicted in oval frames, showcasing their fashionable attire and accessories. The detailed etching style reveals Van de Passe's mastery of the medium. These engravings were likely part of a larger series, highlighting the societal interest in the lives and appearances of influential individuals during the 17th century.
