This intriguing 17th-century print captures the enigmatic figure of Barbara Urslerin, famously known as the Hairy Maid. A German bearded lady, she defied societal norms and expectations with her unique appearance. The portrait showcases her distinctive facial hair, which was considered unusual for a woman during that era. Dressed in traditional attire, Barbara Urslerin stands proudly before us, challenging conventional beauty standards with confidence. Her expression is both captivating and mysterious, inviting viewers to ponder her story and inner world. This print offers a glimpse into the life of an extraordinary individual who dared to embrace her natural self despite being labeled as a "freak" or "weird". The artist's attention to detail is evident in every strand of hair on Barbara's face, emphasizing her distinctiveness while also highlighting the humanity beneath it all. While some may perceive this image as ugly or strange, it serves as a reminder that beauty comes in many forms and should not be confined by societal expectations.
