"Susanna Smuls" and "Leuye Joost" is a 1564 ink by Lucas van Doetechum, a Renaissance work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This image shows two black-and-white portraits side by side. Both faces are framed in ovals with a textured border. The person on the left wears a dark collar and looks slightly upward. The person on the right has a hat pulled low and a beard, with deep lines on their face. These portraits were made using a printmaking method that creates fine details. The artist signed the work in the corners, showing this was a deliberate piece. Look up etching to see how artists like this made prints.
