Princess Henrietta Catharina, Sister of William II of Orange is a 1628 ink by Crispyn van den Queboorn, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a black-and-white portrait of a young woman with curly hair and a serious expression. She wears a high-necked dress with detailed lace cuffs and a pearl necklace. The background is plain, but the border around her is filled with crisscrossed lines that create shading. The text below her name calls out Crispyn van den Queboorn as the engraver who made this print. The style of the lines and shading suggests careful craftsmanship. Look up engraving to see how artists like this made detailed prints from metal plates.
Crispyn van den Queboorn (1604–1652) was an artist.
