Portret van Gerberga van Neder-Lotharingen after 1661

This 17th-century engraving by Pieter de Jode II, titled "Portret van Gerberga van Neder-Lotharingen," depicts Gerberga of Lower Lotharingia, a historical figure of importance. The portrait showcases Gerberga's aristocratic status with a detailed depiction of her elaborate headdress and jewelry. The use of etching, a technique that creates lines and textures by using acid to etch a metal plate, allows for a realistic portrayal of Gerberga's features and the intricate details of her attire. The artwork is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
