"Oude-Kate" is a print by Belgian artist Felicien Rops (1833-1898). This artwork is a stark depiction of a woman, possibly a peasant, with weathered features. The etching captures the harsh realities of poverty and aging, using stark contrasts of light and shadow to highlight the subject's wrinkles and rough clothing. The woman's somber expression and the presence of a basket of potatoes emphasize themes of hard work and resilience. The print is a powerful example of Rops's ability to capture the human condition with both realism and psychological depth.
