Vrouw met kan in het venster 1752 - 1771

"Vrouw met kan in het venster" (Woman with a Jug in the Window) is an etching created by Dutch artist Robbert Muys in the 18th century. The artwork depicts a woman leaning out of a window, holding a jug in one hand and pulling a rope with the other. The scene is set in a domestic interior, and the woman's expression is both curious and composed. This etching, now in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the Dutch tradition of genre painting, focusing on everyday life and scenes of ordinary people. It's a fine example of the artist's skill in depicting light and shadow, capturing a moment of quiet contemplation.
