About this work

Overview

Woman of the Gabbro is an etching on wove paper created by Giovanni Fattori in 1886.

Subject & Meaning

The print depicts a woman outdoors, grasping a branch with one hand, set against a simple background of buildings and trees. Her dress is characterized by long, flowing lines.
