"Vrouw in raffiarok bij kind in hangmat," (Woman in a Raffia Skirt by a Child in a Hammock) is an 1830-1880 print by French artist Adolphe Mouilleron, currently held in the Rijksmuseum. The print depicts a woman in a simple, native garment, looking down at a child resting in a hammock. The scene, likely inspired by an exotic locale, showcases Mouilleron's detailed depiction of natural elements, with lush foliage framing the figures and a glimpse of a distant coastline. This work, representative of the artistic trend of depicting idealized, romantic views of foreign cultures, appeals to those interested in 19th-century European art and anthropological themes.
