Donna mediocre 1598

"Donna mediocre" (1598) is a woodcut by Christoph Krieger, depicting a woman in a fur-trimmed cloak standing beside a child. The figures are framed within a decorative border of swirling, stylized foliage. This artwork exemplifies the artistic style prevalent in the late 16th century, where woodcuts were used for illustrations in books and publications. The detailed rendering of the figures and intricate border highlights the technical skill of the artist. This small-scale print, measuring 167 mm in height and 125 mm in width, is a testament to the artistry of the period.
