Zoon van Lamekis verzorgd door een boerin 1786

"Zoon van Lamekis verzorgd door een boerin" is a 1786 engraving by Dutch artist Charles Emmanuel Patas. The artwork depicts a scene of a young man, perhaps a son of Lamekis, being cared for by a peasant woman. The engraving is small, measuring 187mm high and 125mm wide, and showcases Patas's intricate detail work, particularly in the figures and the surrounding woodland setting. The engraving is likely part of a larger series focusing on historical or mythological figures, reflecting the popular interest in classical themes during the 18th century. The artwork's intimate scale and its depiction of a moment of human care offer a poignant glimpse into the lives of people in a historical setting.
