Vrouw reikt een meisje een kan c. 1846 - 1882

"Vrouw reikt een meisje een kan" is a pencil sketch by Cornelis Springer, a Dutch artist known for his realistic portrayal of everyday life. The sketch depicts two figures, likely women, in simple clothing, one offering a jug to the other. The artwork is a quick study of movement and form, typical of Springer's style. It is a fascinating example of the artist's working process and offers a glimpse into the everyday lives of people in the Netherlands during the 19th century. The sketch is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.
