Lady in a Large Coat is a 1622 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see a woman in a wide coat with big sleeves. Her hat hides her face. The lines are sharp and clean. Callot made this in 1622 using a metal plate and acid. The coat’s folds look real because of tiny lines he scratched in. Back then, artists used this method called etching to make prints. Check out another print by Callot, Jacques.
