Soldaat geeft een arme vrouw wat geld 1829

Hippolyte Bellangé's "Soldaat geeft een arme vrouw wat geld" (1829) depicts a poignant scene of charity. A French soldier in full uniform offers money to a destitute woman seated on the ground. The scene is set in a rural environment, emphasizing the contrast between the soldier's military garb and the woman's poverty. The lithograph, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies Bellangé's artistic focus on military life and social themes.
