"Schouw met ketels" is a charcoal drawing by Belgian artist Paul Bodifée, created between 1876 and 1931. The drawing depicts a simple yet atmospheric interior scene featuring a large cauldron hanging over a fireplace. The composition emphasizes the play of light and shadow, highlighting the textures of the brick walls and the rough wooden floor. The overall mood is one of quiet introspection, evocative of the daily life of a humble dwelling. The artist’s signature can be seen in the bottom left corner of the drawing.
