Design with Female Figure in Flowing Drapery n.d.

This pen and ink drawing, created by the Dutch Mannerist artist Hendrick Goltzius, depicts a female figure in flowing drapery. Goltzius, known for his masterful draftsmanship, used the medium to explore the expressive possibilities of the human form, particularly the dynamic movement of clothing. This sketch is a fine example of his interest in capturing the intricate details of fabric and its interaction with the body, typical of his oeuvre. The design is believed to be a study for a larger work and stands as a testament to Goltzius's skill and vision.
