Twee vrouwen 1824 - 1894

"Twee vrouwen" (Two Women), a lithograph by Belgian artist Charles Rochussen (1814-1894), depicts two figures in simple dress standing outdoors. The image is composed of delicate lines and subtle shading, characteristic of Rochussen's style. The work, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, showcases the artist's ability to capture both the realistic details of everyday life and the quiet dignity of his subjects. The small scale of the lithograph (171 mm x 213 mm) allows for intimate observation of the figures and their subtle gestures.
