Wandelende jonge boer after 1635

Frederick Bloemaert's "Wandelende jonge boer" (Walking Young Farmer) is a detailed etching depicting a young man walking, likely a farmer, carrying a large basket on his back and a stick in his hand. Created after 1635, the work is characterized by its realistic depiction of clothing and posture, showing Bloemaert's skill in capturing the everyday lives of ordinary people in the Dutch Golden Age. The etching is housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam and is a testament to the artistic talent of the Dutch master.
