Verkoper van zwavelstokken 1769 - 1838

"Verkoper van zwavelstokken" (Sulfur Match Seller), an etching created between 1769 and 1838 by Carlo Lasinio, depicts a street vendor in Venice, Italy. The print is characteristic of the Neoclassical style, popular in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, with its focus on clear lines and precise details. The figure of the vendor is shown in profile, carrying a large bag of sulfur matches on his back, creating a sense of realism and social commentary on everyday life in Venice.
