Vrouw met kind in de armen 1752 - 1789

This etching, titled "Vrouw met kind in de armen" (Woman with child in her arms), was created by Dutch artist Caspar Jacobsz. Philips between 1752 and 1789. The piece depicts a woman holding a child, likely her own, in a tender and intimate embrace. The use of hatching and cross-hatching create depth and texture in the drawing, highlighting the folds of the mother's garment and the child's soft features. The small size and delicate detail of the etching make it a notable example of Philips' skill in capturing human emotion and intimacy. The drawing is currently held in the Rijksmuseum.
