De kar 1642 - 1669

"De Kar" (The Cart) is an etching created by Flemish artist Jan Baptist de Wael between 1642 and 1669. It depicts a group of figures struggling to move a heavily laden cart. The scene is filled with a sense of chaos, as the figures scramble to keep the cart from tipping over. The composition is characterized by a dynamic use of line and shadow, emphasizing the physical strain and disarray. The artwork is a testament to de Wael's skill in capturing the energy and movement of everyday life.
