Portret van een onbekende vrouw 1831 - 1890

This 19th-century engraving by Jean Baptiste Pierre Michiels, titled "Portret van een onbekende vrouw," depicts a woman's bust portrait with a serene expression. The woman is dressed in an era-typical high-collared garment and has a bow tied at her neck. The artist's signature appears in the bottom right corner of the print. This small, intimate portrait, which is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to Michiels' skill in rendering detail and capturing nuanced emotion.
