Ouder echtpaar aan het werk 1675

"Ouder echtpaar aan het werk," created in 1675 by Conrad Meyer (1618-1689), depicts an elderly couple seated in an interior setting. The man sits at a table with a book and quill in hand, seemingly engrossed in writing. The woman, positioned in a chair to his left, holds a book. The scene is a portrayal of domestic life, with a simple but detailed depiction of the couple's domestic space. This etching showcases Meyer's skill in capturing the nuances of everyday life, highlighting the intimate moments of an aging couple in their home. The print is currently held in the Rijksmuseum.
