"July" is an etching by Dutch artist Cornelis Dusart, depicting a scene of rural labor and perhaps a moment of mischief. The print shows three figures working in a field, with one woman laying on the ground, possibly injured or feigning injury. The use of etching, a technique involving acid to create lines on a metal plate, allows for nuanced shading and texture, highlighting the details of the figures and the tools they use. This piece is characteristic of Dusart's work, often focusing on peasant life and humorous observations of daily activities.
