More about this artwork

Discover the elegance of simplicity in Roelant Savery's exquisite sketch, "Seated Woman," created between 1603 and 1608. This artwork showcases Savery's mastery in capturing the subtle poise and quiet contemplation of a seated female figure. The woman, depicted in profile, is enveloped in layers of flowing garments, which envelop her form with soft, sweeping lines that evoke a sense of gentle motion.The artist’s use of delicate and assured pen strokes brings this figure to life, emphasizing the textures and folds of her attire. Notably, her head is adorned with a tightly fitted bonnet, which frames her contemplative face, turned away from the viewer, adding an air of mystery and introspection.This drawing not only highlights Savery's skill in figure drawing but also serves as a fascinating glimpse into the clothing and styles of the early 17th century. The meticulous details and the positioning of the figure suggest a moment of rest or perhaps deep thought, inviting viewers to ponder the story behind the woman's serene demeanor."Seated Woman" remains a testament to the enduring power of minimalist art to convey profound narratives and emotions through the simplest of scenes and strokes.

Roelant Savery (or Roeland(t) Maertensz Saverij, or de Savery, or many variants) was a Flanders-born Dutch Golden Age painter.

Savery was born in Kortrijk. Like so many other artists, he belonged to an Anabaptist family that fled north from the Spanish-occupied Southern Netherlands when Roelant was about 4 years old and settled in Haarlem around 1585. He was taught painting by his older brother Jacob Savery (c. 1565 – 1603) and Hans Bol.
