Study of Female Proportions Art Print
This 1747 engraving by Jan Punt, after a drawing by Jacob de Wit, offers a meticulous exploration of the ideal female form.

The engraving’s delicate lines and shading enhance the figure’s elegance, while the structured measurements reflect an analytical approach to depicting the human body. The inscription "Avec Privilegie" suggests its official approval, cementing its status as both an artistic and educational work of its time.
