From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Madame de Gillier is a 1652 ink by Robert Nanteuil, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This engraving shows a woman in a dress with a white collar and a pearl necklace. Her hair is curled and pulled back, and she's looking straight ahead. The background is dark, which makes her stand out. The woman's face is serious, and her eyes seem to be looking right at you. The details in her dress and hair are very fine, which suggests that the artist was skilled at engraving. If you're interested in learning more about this style of art, you might want to look into the Baroque movement.
