Kind zittend in een kinderstoel in een tuin 1874 - 1901

Jan de Jong's "Kind zittend in een kinderstoel in een tuin," (1874-1901), is a small, detailed etching depicting a child seated in a chair in a garden setting. The image, with its use of fine lines and subtle shading, highlights the quiet solitude of the scene. The focus is on the child and the chair, which are rendered with great care. The background, with its suggestion of foliage and a distant building, adds depth to the composition. This work is characteristic of de Jong's style, known for its sensitive depictions of everyday life and its focus on light and shadow.
