Zes dames met de kunstenaar in zijn kamer 1758

This 1758 etching by Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki, titled "Zes dames met de kunstenaar in zijn kamer" (Six Ladies with the Artist in His Room), depicts a scene of social interaction and artistic creation. The artist, dressed in a formal coat, sits in his studio while several women observe him working. Chodowiecki, known for his detailed and expressive engravings, captures the elegance of 18th-century society through the figures' attire and the refined setting. This work, now in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to the artist's skill in depicting everyday life with a touch of charm and sophistication.
