Riet van Houten spelend aan een vleugel 1895

"Riet van Houten spelend aan een vleugel" (1895) is a lithograph by Dutch artist Jan Toorop, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. The work features a woman, Riet van Houten, seated at a grand piano, her profile visible as she plays, with the music sheets open on the stand. The etching style of the artwork, typical of Toorop's work, renders the scene with a sense of atmosphere and intimacy, highlighting the emotional impact of the moment. The print itself is a testament to the artist's skill in capturing the nuances of both human form and the intimate environment.
