Oude vrouw met een kruik 1720 - 1792

"Oude vrouw met een kruik" (Old Woman with a Jug) is an etching by Dutch artist Aert Schouman, dated 1720-1792. The artwork depicts a close-up portrait of an elderly woman, seated with her right hand on a decorated jug. The woman is dressed in a simple, dark gown and a white cap. The etching, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, is a striking example of Schouman's skill in capturing the texture of fabric and the character of his subjects.
