Man met schenkkan en glas 1768 - 1827

This etching, "Man met schenkkan en glas," was created by Dutch artist Cornelis van (II) Cuylenburgh between 1768 and 1827. The work depicts a man seated, pouring liquid from a jug into a glass. The scene is rendered in an oval format, characteristic of 18th-century portraiture. Cuylenburgh's attention to detail is evident in the textured rendering of the man's clothing and the delicate lines of the glass and jug. The etching's intimate scale and focus on everyday life make it a compelling example of Dutch realism. The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
