Zittende vrouw bij spinnewiel 1809 - 1837

"Zittende vrouw bij spinnewiel" (Seated woman at spinning wheel) is an etching by Dutch artist Pieter Bartholomeusz. Barbiers, created between 1809 and 1837. The artwork, now in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a woman seated beside a spinning wheel, her hands carefully working the spindle. The simple composition and detailed rendering of the figure and spinning wheel, emphasize the quiet domesticity of the scene. This etching, measuring just 265 mm by 206 mm, is a testament to Barbiers' skill in capturing the essence of everyday life.
