Jacob de Gheyn, II. Two Studies of a Roma Woman and a Roma Boy in a Large Hat. 1600–1610. Netherlands. Pen and black iron gall ink on tan laid paper Jacques de Gheyn trained as a glass painter, miniaturist, and ultimately as an engraver under Hendrick Goltzius. This extraordinary drawing belongs to his mature, realistic style and reflects his sympathy for nomadic people, his interest in witchcraft, and his fascination with fortune-tellers.
