1643
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Mulier ex inferiori Palainatu is a 1643 ink by Wenceslaus Hollar, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a black-and-white etching of a woman standing straight ahead. She wears a long skirt, a dark coat, and a wide collar with a ruffled edge. Her hands hold a small object, and she has a dark hat pulled low over her head. The title at the bottom, *Mulier ex inferiori Palatinatu*, hints at a regional connection, but it’s unclear without more context. Next, look up etching to see how artists like Hollar made detailed prints like this.
