Geleerde in zijn werkvertrek 1809 - 1837

"Geleerde in zijn werkvertrek" (Scholar in his Study) is a lithograph by Pieter Bartholomeusz Barbiers, created between 1809 and 1837. The artwork depicts a scholar seated at a table with a globe, books, and a quill pen, suggesting intellectual pursuit and learning. Barbiers was a Dutch artist known for his portraits and genre scenes, often depicting everyday life in the 19th century. This piece, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the world of scholarship during that era.
