Moeder met kind en kat 1802

"Moeder met kind en kat" (Mother with Child and Cat) is an etching created by Dutch artist Jan Chalon in 1802. This print showcases Chalon's ability to capture intimate moments with a nuanced touch. The image depicts a mother seated, her head resting on her hand, her child standing beside her, both looking directly at the viewer. In the mother's lap, a cat peacefully rests, adding to the scene's domesticity. This small-scale work, measuring 201mm by 171mm, is a testament to Chalon's mastery of etching and his ability to portray everyday life with emotional depth.
