Vrouw met een kruik 1673 - 1715

"Vrouw met een kruik" (Woman with a Jug) is an etching by Nicolaes van Haeften, a Dutch artist, created between 1673 and 1715. The print depicts a woman, dressed in a simple white gown, holding a large jug in her right hand and a bowl in her left. The woman is positioned in the foreground of the composition, with two older figures seen partially behind her, suggesting a domestic setting. Van Haeften's etching showcases his skill in depicting detailed figures and subtle light and shadow effects. The work is an example of the genre of genre scenes, which depict everyday life in the 17th century.
