Staande man met kind met hoepel 1777 - 1779

This 18th-century etching by Pieter de Mare, titled "Staande man met kind met hoepel," portrays a man and child on a simple background, possibly in a street scene. The man, dressed in 18th-century clothing, points towards the child. The child, holding a hoop, looks directly at the viewer. This piece exemplifies de Mare's mastery of penmanship and attention to detail in depicting everyday life. The etching is held in the Rijksmuseum and is a testament to the artist's work during the Dutch Golden Age of art.
