Zwerver bij een kruiwagen 1767

"Zwerver bij een kruiwagen" (1767) by Caspar Jacobsz. Philips depicts a wanderer standing near a wheelbarrow. Philips, a Dutch painter known for his genre scenes, captures the figure in a moment of pause, showcasing the realities of daily life for common people in the 18th century. The artwork, currently located in the Rijksmuseum, demonstrates Philips' skill in capturing both the physicality and the pathos of his subjects. This small-scale drawing (104mm x 67mm) is a testament to Philips' ability to convey emotion and realism within a compact format.
