Noble Woman in Profile with her Hands in a Muff is a 1622 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This drawing shows a woman in a long, flowing dress with ruffles at the chest and sleeves. She holds a muff in one hand and stands sideways, facing left. Behind her, a small town scene has a church, a few trees, and people walking. The artist used fine lines to show the fabric’s texture and light. This style was common in etchings of the time. Look up etching to see how artists like Callot made prints like this.
Jacques Callot was a baroque printmaker and draftsman from the Duchy of Lorraine.
