Mulier Austriae Superioris

Wenceslaus Hollar

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a woman standing in a posed position. She faces forward with her hands delicately positioned in front of her body. Her facial features include a serene expression, with finely arched eyebrows and closed lips. Her hairstyle is neat, with her hair pulled back into a bun. She is dressed in period attire consisting of a long dress with an elaborate ruffled collar, a fur-lined cape, and a voluminous skirt. The gown drapes down to her feet, where pointed shoes are visible. There are no visible jewelry pieces or objects she is holding. The background is plain, and the image is bordered by a margin containing text at the bottom that reads "Mulier Austriæ superioris," along with small text indicating the artist and date.
