"Allegorische voorstelling met een zieke vrouw, een piskijker en de Dood" (c. 1750 - 1850) by Van Duffel is a small etching depicting an allegorical scene. The composition features a reclining female figure, a man holding a cup, a skeleton symbolizing Death, and a man urinating, all surrounding a shield. The print's small dimensions and the use of etching suggest a personal or private work, potentially intended for a devotional or satirical purpose. The combination of symbolic imagery and the artist's signature, "V.D.Duffel," provides insight into the artist's practice and the societal themes prevalent in 18th-century art.
