Vrouw bladerend door een boek 1880 - 1936

"Vrouw bladerend door een boek," is an etching by the Belgian artist René Janssens (1870-1936). The artwork depicts a woman seated and turning the pages of a book. The image's sepia tones create a sense of intimacy and tranquility, highlighting the woman's focused gaze and the delicate details of her attire. This piece, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, reflects Janssens's mastery of the etching technique and his interest in capturing the quiet moments of everyday life.
