"Jensina Proves a Born Housewife" is a 1925 illustration by the renowned British artist Arthur Rackham (1867-1939). The artwork depicts a whimsical scene with a wooden doll, possibly representing Jensina, engaged in domestic chores. The doll hangs laundry while a group of marmots observe, adding a touch of humor and a hint of anthropomorphism to the scene. Rackham, known for his illustrations for classic literary works, employed his signature style of detailed pen and ink drawings with washes of watercolor, creating a charming and imaginative piece.
