"Girl Sewing by Lamplight" is a 1912 engraving by Timothy Cole, a renowned American artist known for his meticulous renderings. This print, housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, showcases Cole's mastery of detail and the use of light and shadow. The scene depicts a young woman seated, illuminated by a single lamp as she meticulously sews. Cole's technique, using a burin to etch into a copper plate, produces a captivating image of intimate domesticity. The print's muted tones and subtle textures create a sense of quiet contemplation, reminiscent of Dutch Golden Age paintings.
