"Gesluierde vrouw, omlaag kijkend" (Veiled Woman Looking Down) is an anonymous 17th-century Dutch drawing depicting a young woman in profile, her face partially obscured by a veil. The delicate lines of the drawing and the woman's somber expression evoke a sense of melancholy, perhaps reflecting the emotional complexities of the era. The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, offering a glimpse into Dutch portraiture during a period of significant artistic growth.
