The subject is depicted in a formal, three-quarter view, wearing the distinctive attire of the early seventeenth century. Her most prominent feature is the large, stiffened ruff collar that frames her face, a garment typical of the period's aristocratic fashion. The texture of the ruff is rendered with precise, rhythmic lines that capture the folds and shadows of the starched fabric.\n\nThe woman wears a dark, structured bodice adorned with a vertical row of buttons and a visible chain, suggesting a high social status. Her expression is composed, with a direct gaze directed toward the viewer. Tanjé employs a variety of engraving techniques to differentiate between the smooth skin of the face, the crisp pleats of the collar, and the heavier, darker fabric of the sleeves. The background remains plain, ensuring the focus stays entirely on the figure.\n\nThis print was produced as part of a series documenting works held in the Royal Gallery of Dresden. The lower margin includes bilingual inscriptions in Italian and French, identifying the original painter as Rubens and providing the dimensions of the source painting. Such prints were essential for the dissemination of European masterworks during the eighteenth century, allowing collectors and artists to study compositions from distant royal collections. Tanjé, known for his technical proficiency in reproductive engraving, successfully translates the painterly qualities of the original oil portrait into the monochromatic medium of the copperplate. The work remains a clear example of the reproductive print tradition, where the engraver acts as a conduit for the style and composition of an earlier master.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/portrait-of-charles-i-of-england-anthony-van-dyck\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePortrait of Charles I of England - Anthony van Dyck — Anthony van Dyck\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/pastoral-landscape-with-the-ponte-molle-claude-lorrain\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePastoral Landscape with the Ponte Molle - Claude Lorrain — Claude Lorrain\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pieter Tanjé","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58172165980495,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58172583706959,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58172583739727,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58172583772495,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58172583805263,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58172583838031,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58172583870799,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58172583903567,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58172583936335,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58172583969103,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58172584001871,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58172584034639,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/A-Woman-After-Peter-Paul-Rubens-_Poster_CompositorV1_1783472286111.jpg?v=1783568213","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/a-woman-after-peter-paul-rubens-pieter-tanje","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
