Vrouw met ring in de hand 1722 - 1774

"Vrouw met ring in de hand" is a small etching created by the German artist Christian Wilhelm Ernst Dietrich between 1722 and 1774. The artwork, which is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a woman in profile, her hand raised to her chest, holding a ring. The etching's delicate lines and fine details capture the subject's elegant form and emphasize the symbolic importance of the ring. The composition, with its dramatic chiaroscuro and focus on the woman's gesture, suggests a sense of introspection and contemplation.
