Vier voorstellingen over de eigenschappen van de ziel, plaat 3 1786 - 1806

"Vier voorstellingen over de eigenschappen van de ziel, plaat 3" is an etching by Dutch artist Jan Evert Grave. This print depicts four scenes that illustrate the qualities of the soul. The first scene shows a woman asleep in bed while a child stands next to her, possibly representing innocence. The second scene shows two women engaged in a conversation, perhaps symbolizing communication or social interaction. The third scene shows a group of children playing, suggesting the concept of childhood or playfulness. The fourth scene shows a man sweeping the floor, representing the concept of work or responsibility. Each scene is depicted in a distinct interior setting, adding to the overall narrative of the print. Created between 1786 and 1806, this print is a valuable example of Grave's work and offers insight into the social and cultural values of the era.
