Buildings in the background, printmaker: Johannes Josephus Aarts, 1881 - 1934, paper, engraving, intaglio printmaking technique, engraving and plate tone, height 233 mm x width 144 mm, lute, and special forms of lute, eg: theorbo, musician, A woman in historical dress stands in an arched doorway holding a stringed instrument with one hand and resting the other on her hip; she wears a headscarf and a gown with a wide neckline and puffed sleeves, a fitted bodice with lacing, and a pouch at her waist, and her hair curls at the neck. Her gaze is directed to the side and her posture is slightly turned, showing the draped folds of her long skirt and the detailed linear shading of the fabric. The scene includes architectural elements of the doorway and a view beyond it of tall, narrow buildings with pointed roofs and vertical hatching suggesting rain or sky, and there is textured crosshatching throughout the image creating shadows and contours.
