Oude vrouw aan tafel met papieren in haar handen 1863 - 1904

"Oude vrouw aan tafel met papieren in haar handen," (Old woman at a table with papers in her hands) is a print by Belgian artist Fernand Desmoulin. It features a close-up portrait of an elderly woman seated at a table, thoughtfully studying papers she holds in her hand. The print is rendered in black and white, creating a sense of quiet introspection. The work, created between 1863 and 1904, is now part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands. This artwork is a fine example of realistic portraiture, highlighting the artist's skilled use of light and shadow to capture the sitter's expression.
