"Afra mulier vidua" is a 16th-century engraving by Enea Vico, an Italian artist. The engraving depicts a standing female figure, possibly a widow, with her arms outstretched. The figure is dressed in a long robe and headwear, possibly symbolic of her widowhood. The inscription at the bottom of the page reads "Afra mulier vidua," which translates to "Afra, the widowed woman." The engraving is currently in the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
