Twee kinderen 1788 - 1811

"Twee kinderen" (Two Children) is a print by Dutch artist Dirk van der Toorn, dating back to the late 18th or early 19th century. The print depicts two children in a simple pose, with the larger child holding something in their hands and the smaller child looking up at them. The image is rendered in a realistic style, with attention to detail in the children's clothing and facial expressions. Though Van der Toorn's life was cut short at the age of 33, this print is an example of his skill as a draftsman and engraver, using simple compositions to create evocative and endearing scenes of everyday life.
