"My Aunt Johanna" is a black and white etching by Belgian artist Felicien Rops. It depicts a seated woman in a detailed, textured style that is characteristic of the artist's work. The subject's face is obscured and she is depicted in a somber and introspective pose, suggesting the artist's fascination with darker themes and the human condition. Rops, known for his controversial and often provocative art, produced this work in the late 19th century, a period when realism and social commentary were increasingly popular in art.
