Dansende boer en boerin 1623 - 1653

"Dansende boer en boerin" is an etching by Dutch artist Pieter Nolpe, created between 1623 and 1653. The artwork depicts a peasant couple, a man holding a mug and a woman holding a pipe, both in mid-step as they dance. The etching is characterized by its detailed linework and use of shadow, capturing the figures' movements with a sense of energy and dynamism. The work is a fine example of Dutch genre painting, which often focused on scenes of everyday life and the activities of ordinary people. It is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
