Meisje geeft bloemen water op een graf 1797 - 1836

"Meisje geeft bloemen water op een graf" (Girl watering flowers on a grave) is a black and white engraving by Dutch artist Philippus Velijn from 1797 - 1836. The artwork depicts a young girl tending to a grave, with a weeping willow tree in the background. This image is an example of Romanticism, a movement that emphasized emotion and nature. This piece, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, captures the themes of mortality and remembrance common to 19th century art.
