Twee kinderen bij een nest met kittens c. 1928 - 1941

"Twee kinderen bij een nest met kittens" (Two Children by a Nest of Kittens), created by Miep de Feijter between 1928 and 1941, is a charming illustration that captures the innocent joy of childhood. The piece portrays two children, a girl sitting on a staircase with a kitten in her lap and a boy kneeling on the floor reaching into a basket of kittens. The delicate line work and subtle washes of blue create a sense of gentle warmth. The composition is framed by a door, a window, and a hint of a patterned rug, suggesting a domestic setting where playful moments unfold.
