EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Unknown Woman 1647" takes us back in time to the 17th century. Created through the intricate technique of etching and drypoint, this second state artwork showcases the remarkable talent of an unknown artist. The sheet measures approximately 4 15/16 by 1/8 inches, making it a delicate and intimate piece. The subject of this portrait is a young woman, portrayed nearly half-length and facing forward. She exudes elegance and sophistication with her elaborate head dress adorned with pearls and a veil that partially covers her face. Her attire consists of a short fur waistcoat layered over a brocaded bodice, adding texture and richness to the overall composition. Although we may not know who this mysterious woman is or who created this masterpiece, its resemblance to works by Hans Holbein the Younger suggests his influence on the artist's style. Holbein was a renowned German painter from Augsburg who later moved to London during his career. This Artokoloro print allows us to appreciate both the beauty of portraiture as well as the skillful craftsmanship behind it. It serves as a window into history, capturing not only an individual's likeness but also reflecting societal norms and fashion trends of that era.
