Print from Drawing Book is a 1615 ink by Luca Ciamberlano, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a black-and-white engraving of a woman’s face inside a round frame. Her hair is curly, pulled back, and her expression is calm but serious. The background is plain, with a few lines at the top and a simple collar around her neck. The print uses fine lines and shading to show light and shadow on her face. The artist focused on her forehead, eyes, and jaw to give her a clear, almost three-dimensional look. Next, look up engraving to see how artists like this create detailed prints.
