Woman Bathing Her Feet at a Brook, 1658, Rembrandt Harmensz. van Rijn, Dutch, 1606–1669, image, sheet: 6 7/16 x 3 3/8 in. ( x cm), Etching and engraving, only state, The Netherlands, 17th century, Female nudes dominated Rembrandt's final years as a printmaker. All seem to be based on direct observation of the model, and exhibit intimate appreciation of reality and vulnerability. Here one can make out the back of a chair, but Rembrandt's thoughts wandered into the realm of fantasy, and he relocated his model to a waterside embankment
