Navigatoris Hollandici Vxor

Wenceslaus Hollar

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a woman in profile, facing left. She is standing upright with her left arm bent, holding a cylindrical object. The woman has delicate facial features, styled hair under a flat-brimmed hat with a rounded crown. She wears a long gown with a fur-edged collar, puffed sleeves, and a draped skirt. A fabric ruff adorns her neck, and she has simple shoes. The background is plain.
