Slapend meisje aan tafel 1752 - 1789

"Slapend meisje aan tafel" is a small etching by Caspar Jacobsz. Philips, a Dutch artist who specialized in portraiture and genre scenes. The etching, created between 1752 and 1789, depicts a young woman asleep at a table, her head resting on her hand. The simple composition and detailed rendering of the figure's drapery and facial features are characteristic of Philips's work. This intimate portrayal of everyday life exemplifies the genre of Dutch realism, capturing a fleeting moment of quietude.
