About this work

This drypoint etching shows a young woman with her head bowed, absorbed in sewing a pale length of cloth held in her lap. Loose, hatched lines define her hair, dark dress and the folds of the fabric, while the background is left largely blank. The print is titled The seamstress and is attributed to Jakob Smits.
