Nobilis Mulier Anglica, in Vestitu Hiemali

Wenceslaus Hollar

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a person facing to the right, wearing historical ornate attire, including a voluminous dress with a fur-trimmed cape and a head covering that conceals the lower part of the face. The clothing appears to be made of heavy and luxurious fabrics. The hand is not visible. The background is plain, and text below the figure reads "Nobilis Mulier Anglica."
