Reading edition
David Adolphe Constant Artz DUTCH: 1837-1890
A FISHERWOMAN
Water Color
Height, 29½ inches; width, 20½ inches
The life-sized head and shoulders of an old Dutch fisherwoman, her thin gray hair straggling out from underneath her neatly ironed white cap and her hands lying idly in her lap. Her face is in three-quarters view to the right, strongly lighted from the upper left, and bears a placid expression, which, however, tells the story of struggle in life.
Signed at the upper right, Artz.
