Man zittend in een kruiwagen 1803 - 1842

"Man zittend in een kruiwagen" is a small etching by Dutch artist Anthonie Willem Hendrik Nolthenius de Man, created between 1803 and 1842. The artwork depicts a man sitting in a wheelbarrow, resting his chin on his hand with a contemplative expression. This etching is a prime example of de Man's satirical approach to everyday life, capturing a moment of quiet reflection in the midst of labor. The composition is simple yet effective, highlighting the man's relaxed posture and the contrast between his human form and the rustic wheelbarrow.
