Vrouw leunend tegen een rotswand 1844

Charles Jacque's "Vrouw leunend tegen een rotswand" is a black and white etching of a woman in a hooded cloak standing next to a rocky outcrop. The woman is delicately rendered, with a focus on the folds of her cloak, and the surrounding landscape, including a tree, is created with detailed hatchings. The 1844 artwork exemplifies Jacque's interest in realism and the depiction of everyday life. The small scale of the work, measuring 142 mm in height and 104 mm in width, suggests its intimate nature and potential for personal viewing.
