The Lace Maker (1662) is an oil on canvas painting by the Dutch painter Caspar Netscher.

She wears a green skirt, a bright red bodice with the white under-garment showing at the neck and the elbows, and a light cap embroidered in black.

Behind her on the floor in the left foreground lie her shoes; beyond them, in the corner, stands a broom.

At the back is a sunlit wall, on which to the right an unframed landscape print is loosely pinned with two nails.

Signed "C. Netscher," on the margin of the print, and dated 166- [1662, according to the Pompe sale-catalog] [but 1664, according to Sir Claude Phillips and Mr. D. S. MacColl Translator]; panel [canvas, according to Mr. MacColl], 13 inches by 10 1/2 inches.
