"Vrouw uit Libië" (Woman from Libya) is an etching by Stefano della Bella from the 17th century. The etching depicts a woman from Libya holding a spear, representing the region and its people. The image also includes text describing the geography of the region, which was known for its vast deserts. This print is a typical example of della Bella’s illustrative work, which was often commissioned by wealthy patrons interested in exploring the world. The small size and detailed etching suggest the work was likely intended as part of a larger collection of prints.
