Vrouw met wierrookbrander 1706

"Vrouw met wierrookbrander" (Woman with Censer) is a 1706 etching by Sébastien Leclerc, a French artist known for his intricate drawings. The piece, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a woman in flowing drapery holding a censer, the smoke rising above her head in swirling clouds. This detailed and delicate image showcases Leclerc's mastery of line and form. The subject matter, a classical figure with a symbolic object, reflects the popularity of ancient themes during the Baroque period.
