Portret met nieuwjaarswens van Jan Campert 1806 - 1835

This pen-and-ink drawing, titled "Portret met nieuwjaarswens van Jan Campert," was created by Hendrik Marcus Schouten between 1806 and 1835. The artwork depicts a figure, likely Jan Campert, carrying a basket on his head. The simple lines of the drawing suggest a quick sketch, perhaps made for a personal greeting card. The inscription below the figure, written in Dutch, conveys a New Year's wish. The image illustrates Schouten's keen observation of everyday life, capturing a moment in time through a small but poignant depiction.
