Man die op een stok leunt 1657 - 1679

"Man Leaning on a Stick" is an etching by Dutch artist Hendrik Bary dating back to the late 17th century. The artwork, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, depicts a solitary figure clad in worn clothing, leaning heavily on a staff. His posture and the inscription beneath convey a sense of weariness and resignation, perhaps reflecting the artist's own observations of the hardships faced by the common folk in the 17th century. The etching's detailed depiction of the figure's clothing, along with the background landscape, highlights the artistic skill of Hendrik Bary.
