"Three profile heads, one in outline only" is an etching by Wenceslaus Hollar created between 1644 and 1652. This print features three heads in profile, with one rendered in a simple outline while the other two are more fully developed. The use of line and shading in Hollar's work is evident in this piece, showcasing his skill in capturing the subtle details of the human face. The print, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a testament to Hollar's mastery of etching and his keen interest in anatomical studies.
