Noble Woman with a Small Hat is a 1622 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This drawing shows a woman in a fancy, old-fashioned outfit. She’s wearing a high-collared dress with ruffles and a wide skirt, holding a fan in one hand. A small hat sits on her head, and she has a beaded necklace. Behind her, tiny buildings and people fill the background, like a busy street scene. The artist used shading to make the fabric look textured and three-dimensional. This style was common in the early 1600s. Next, look up etching to see how artists like this made detailed prints.
