A Woman Doing Laundry in an Ice Hole (recto)
Hendrick Avercamp (Netherlandish, 1585–1634) · c. 1618
Though incomplete due to the cut of the sheet, the gestures of the men on the back of this drawing suggest they could be engaged in a game of <em>kolf, </em>a ball and paddle game played on the ice that appears frequently in the artist’s winter scenes.
