Studies van een jonge vrouw met een zuigeling op schoot 1869 - 1941

Johannes Abraham Mondt’s *Studies van een jonge vrouw met een zuigeling op schoot* (1869 - 1941) is a pencil drawing that features four sketches depicting a mother holding a baby. The sketches are arranged on a single sheet, and they are likely studies for a larger painting. The artist’s focus on the details of the figures’ poses and clothing suggest a deep interest in capturing the intimate moments of motherhood. This piece showcases the artist’s technical skill and his ability to render lifelike figures in a sensitive and graceful manner. The use of simple graphite lines, reminiscent of a sketch, allows for a loose and expressive style that captures the essence of the subject.
